Welcome to Yam omics database
Introduction
Yams (Dioscorea spp.) are a highly important class of horticultural crops, serving as a staple food for millions of people in Africa and contributing significantly to food security. They are also widely cultivated in East Asia as medicinal herbs, bringing substantial economic incomes. YamOmics is a one-stop multi-omics data resource that provides support for yam basic biology research and breeding.
