The imponance of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is underscored by its use as a component in many cropping system combinations in Africa, Asia, and tropical America. Cropping systems research over the past decade has served as a multidisciplinary approach to examine the biological superiori...

The effects of moisture content and temperature on the medium-term (3-4 months) storage of conidia of Metarhizium flavoviride were investigated. Conidia harvested after 24 days of culturing on rice showed greater tolerance to long storage than conidia from 12-day cultures. The moistut-e content o...

Thirty isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f. sp. manihotis causal organism of cassava anthracnose disease (CAD), were collected from cankers on cassava stems in cassava-growing zones of Nigeria. Using a pathogenicity test, five virulent isolates (05FCN, 10FCN, 12FCN, 18FCN and 26FCN) were...

In sub-Saharan Africa, urban populations are projected to increase by 115% in the coming 15 years. In addition, economic growth and dietary shifts towards animal source foods have put high pressure and demand on agricultural production. The high ecological footprint of meat and dairy production, ...

The germination of capilliconidia of Neozygites floridana on the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa, and the viability of these conidia collected on glass coverslips were studied at different temperatures, humidities (expressed as saturation deficit (SD), measured in mg Hg), and light cond...

The survivorship, fecundity and development time (egg to adult) of Cicadulina storeyi China, C. arachidis China and C. ghaurii Dabrowski were studied at three constant temperatures (20, 25 and 30 .C). Additional tests were conducted to descriptionbe maize streak virus (MSV) transmission by C. ara...

Mali is a Sahelian country with a large climatic contrast from North to South. The current climatic and production evolutionary study is focused on the six major agro-climatic cereal production zones ranging from Kayes (400 mm) to Sikasso (>1000 mm) of rainfalls. Climatic data are rainfall record...
