Singh, B.[Performance of cowpea breeding lines developed from pedigree selection under sole and intercrop in different cropping systems]Performance of cowpea breeding lines developed from pedigree selection under sole and intercrop in different cropping systems

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is the most important grain legume in the dry savannas of West Africa, however grain and fodder yields are low (averaging 25 to 300 kg and 450 to 800 kg grain and fodder/ha, respectively) due to biotic and abiotic constraints. Improved varieties and cropping ...


Ajeigbe, Hakeem A.Singh, B.Kamara, A.Chikoye, D.Adamu, R.S.Saidou, A.K.Adeosun, J.O.[Improving the productivities of cowpeacereal systems in the savannas of West Africa through dissemination of improved varieties and cropping systems]Improving the productivities of cowpeacereal systems in the savannas of West Africa through dissemination of improved varieties and cropping systems

Cowpea is an important grain legume throughout the tropics and subtropics, covering Asia, Africa, and Central and South America, as well as parts of southern Europe and the United States of America. The use patterns, seed preferences, and cropping systems vary from region to region. Insect pests,...


Singh, B.Chambliss, O.Sharma, B.[Recent advances in cowpea breeding]Recent advances in cowpea breeding

The production of cowpea in Africa and America is reviewed briefly. In traditional cropping systems in West Africa, a diversity of both systems and varieties is observed. The contribution of cowpea to overall productivity is small (on average about a tenth of grain yields, averaging 1.5 l/ha), an...


Mortimore, M.Singh, B.Harris, F.Blade, S.[Cowpea in traditional cropping systems]Cowpea in traditional cropping systems

The imponance of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is underscored by its use as a component in many cropping system combinations in Africa, Asia, and tropical America. Cropping systems research over the past decade has served as a multidisciplinary approach to examine the biological superiori...
