Abstract
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of staking and non - staking systems on disease severity, yield and quality attributes of yams . Methodology: High c osts and lack of planting materials, labour, staking and inappropriate knowledge on production techniques are major constraints of yam production in Sierra Leone. A total of seven promising hybrid genotypes of yams from International Institute of Tropical Agriculture and one local cultivar, Pulli, were evaluated for yield, reaction to local pest and disease and desirable market traits during 2011 and 2012 in three agro - ecological zones of Sierra Leone. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete bloc k replicated thrice at the experimental
