Quantification of the fate of residue N is essential in low-input tropical cropping systems for the development of management practices that optimize N-use efficiency. The recovery of N from 15N-labeled leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit) and dactyladenia (Dactyladenia barteri (Hook f ...

In tropical cropping systems with few external imputs, efficient management of mineral N derived from added organic residues is essential for the proper functioning of the system. We studied the dynamics of mineral Nitroden (N) in the top 100 cm of soil with a system tensiometers and suction cups...

Flavonoid chemical markers together with other biochemical markers and/or morphological data can provide useful characters for defining species in Vigna genus. In this paper flavonoid HPLC fingerprints have been utilized to assess taxonomic relationships amongst species and accessions of Vigna.Wi...

The cowpea breeding programmes are reviewed and achievements at two major centres of cowpea research, i.e. IITA (Nigeria) and IARI (India), are summarized. Earlyand extra early genotypes are always photoperiod-insensitive, medium maturity varieties could be sensitive or neutral today length, whil...

Cowpea varieties were evaluated for resistance to Maruca testulalis using differential insecticide sprays that provided a range of pest densities and crop damage. The latter was expressed as a pod evaluation index, Ipe, which uses the degree of pod production or pod load (PL) and pod damage (PD)....

Walp Use of selective insecticidal sprays as an aid in the identification of useful levels of resistance

Farmers of rainfed cowpea/groundnut/millet/sorghum cropping systems in Kano, Nigeria, ranked arthropods as the major production constraint in cowpea and groundnut in 1991 and 1992. At least 25% of the farmers also reported severe infestations by Striga gesneroides a parasitic weed of cowpea. Drou...

Stage-specific survival rates of cowpea seeds were evaluated in fields planted during both cropping seasons of 1991 and 1992 in southern Benin using Manly's regression model. Considerable seed damage could be recognised in all seed growth stages and reflected the variable pest infestations during...

Eighteen cowpea cultivars were screened for resistance to the legume pod borer, Maruca testulalis under field conditions at two locations (Mokwa and Ibadan) in Nigeria under unprotected and two types of insecticide protection levels. Unprotected plots gave zero yield due to their exposure to the ...

Isozyme variation in 25 accessions of wild and cultivated Vigna unguiculata, 49 accessions of seven wild species belonging to section Vigna, and 11 accessions of V vexillata (subgenus Plectrotropis) was scored at 17 putative loci to assess genetic relationships within and among species. The wild ...

Strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vignicola (Xcv), isolated from cowpea leaves with blight or minute pustules and collected from various geographic areas, were selected on the basis of pathological and physiological features. All strains were analyzed for genotypic markers by two methods: rib...
