In 1988 collecting and expeditionsto Southern Africa gathered valuable genetic diversity of wild species of Virgna. A remarkable amount of variability is present in the samples of V. Unguiculata (L.) Walp. Collected in Swaziland and the Republic of South Africa. The data collected, together with ...

Reports the findings of a mission carried out by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture in Zimbabwe to gather genetic resources of cowpea, rice, bambarra groundnut and their wild relatives. 461 samples of 365 species were collected. Sampling was made over 140 sites of both natural ve...

Screening germplasm of Vigna vexillata for resistance to cowpea mottle virus
Fatty acid composition of extracted oils from 58 lines of cowpea (Vigna unguicuiata (L) Walp) was investigated by gas‐liquid chromatography (GLC). Considerable variability was observed in the fatty acid profile, though palmitic (16:0), linoleic (18:2) and linolenic (18:3) acids were the dominant ...
Trypsin inhibitor content was determined in the seeds of 21 cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) lines (10 known to be resistant to Callosobruchus maculatus and 11 susceptible) whilst fatty acid composition was determined in 58 lines (11 resistant and 47 susceptible). A wide range in trypsin inhibitor cont...
Data are given on seed characteristics and nutritive value for 6 accessions of 4 wild Vigna taxa (V. vexillata, V. oblongifolia, V. gracilis and V. unguiculata subsp. dekindtiana) and 27 cultivated V. unguiculata varieties. The 100-seed weight ranged from 2 to 6 g among wild and from 6 to 24 g in...
