CARSON Code Number: cs01031 ABSTRACT: Multilocational trials were conducted in the coastal savanna, forest and forest/savanna agro-ecologies of Ghana in 1996 and 1997 to identify early-maturing sweetpotato varieties. Seven genotypes (including a local check) were evaluated in five locations. Plants were sampled for tuber yields and other characteristics at 3, 4, 5 and 6 months after planting (MAP). Sweetpotato is normally harvested at 4 MAP, so the fresh and dry tuber yields and biomass production of the genotypes at 3 MAP gave an indication of their...
