The parasitic weeds Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke and Alectra vogelli (Benth.) cause considerable demage to cowpea [ Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] in the semiarid regions of Africa. Systematic screening has revealed few cowpea varieties to be resistant. Of these, B 301 is resistant to both st...

Genetics of resistance to Striga and Alectra in cowpea
A partial sterile line of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) resulting from spontaneous mutation was characterised. Plants were classified based on plant morphology, pollen viability and pod set. Partial sterile plants remained green past usual maturity and had thick leathery leaves with a few...
Une lignée partielle de niébé (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) Résultant d'une mutation spontanée a été caractérisée. Les plantes ont été classées en fonction de la morphologie de la plante, de la viabilité du pollen et de l'ensemble des gousses. Les plantes stériles partielles sont restées vertes ...
