The International Institute of Tropical Agriculture maintains the world’s largest collection of cowpea germplasm of over 15,000 accessions. A sub-set of 298 lines from the loosely composed mini core collection of 370 landraces were genotyped based on genotyping by sequencing (GBS). Ward’s minimum...

Cowpea is an important crop for food security, as it is a primary source of protein and cash income for farmers in the dry
savanna areas of Sub-Saharan Africa. Improved varieties should contain reasonable amounts of protein in the grains, and to
ensure this, timely and cost-effective analytical m...

Sharing of responsibilities of cowpea and wild relative long term conservation
A comparative analysis of farmers’ preferences on improved cowpea varieties was carried out based on the data obtained from farmers’ participatory varietal selection and questionnaire survey undertaken in south-eastern Niger and north-central Burkina Faso. The grain yield was consistently the mos...
