Abstract
The review aimed to identify the different high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) techniques that used for
quality evaluation in cassava and yam breeding programmes, and this has provided insights towards the
development of metrics and their application in cassava and yam improvements. A systematic review of
the published research articles involved the use of NIRS in analysing the quality traits of cassava and
yam was carried out, and Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Sciences and Google Scholar were searched.
The results of the review established that NIRS could be used in understanding the chemical constituents
(carbohydrate, protein, vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, moisture, starch, etc.) for high-throughput phenotyping. This study provides preliminary evidence of the application of NIRS as an efficient and affordable
procedure for HTP. However, the feasibility of using mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIRS) and hyperspectral
imaging (HSI) in combination with the NIRS could be further studied for quality traits phenotyping.
