By introduction of an additional variable and addition of a Weyl invariant correction term to the perturbative prepotential in five-dimensional Seiberg-Witten theory we construct solutions of the Witten–Dijkgraaf–Verlinde–Verlinde equations of trigonometric type for all crystallographic root systems.
