Abstract

African Yam Bean (AYB; Sphenostylis sternocarpa) is an underutilized tuberous legume indigenous to Africa. It serves as a security crop with promises of nutraceutical benefits1.
Fungal diseases are one of the major factors deterring farmers from large-scale cultivation and germplasm regeneration of AYB2.
The causal agent of these diseases are largely uncharacterized.
