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...

Cowpea (V. unguiculata) represents the main food legume in tropical Africa. Germplasm collecting missions launched over the past 10 years have provided genebanks with a wide array of variability within the cultivated and wild taxa of the species. Based on detailed studies on morphological diversi...

Origin, taxonomy and morphology of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp
The genus Vigna comprises seven subgenera and sixteen sections. Cowpea, Vigna tingnicnlatti (L.) Walp.. is an important grain legume crop in sub-Saharan Africa and belongs to the subgenus Vigna. section Ctitiang. Morphologically, cowpea genotypes appear very variable. However, a high level of gen...
Knowledge of the genetic relationships and variability among cultivated germplasm is important for facilitating the transfer of useful genes and maximizing the use of available germplasm resources. In this study, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to assess genetic diversit...
