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...

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 ...

Single node cuttings from pathogen-tested in vitro plantlets of white guinea yam (D. rotundata), cultivar TDr 93–23, were cultured in tuberization and half- and full-strength Murashige and Skoog media with 5% or 8% sucrose, with or without agar, in light or darkness and at 25 or 18°C. Microtuberi...

Genetic diversity was investigated among fifty accessions of yard-long-bean (Vigna unguiculatasubspecies unguiculatacultivar group sesquipedalis) using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Sixteen SSR primers were used to amplify DNA of the 50 accessions. A total of 63 polymorphic bands were det...
The genetic diversity in wild cowpea was assessed using cowpea derived simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of forty eight wild cowpea
lines collected from diverse geographical locations in Africa were used for the study. Twelve SSR markers were selected for amplification of DNA
