Flower bud thrips, Megalurothrips sjostedti is the most severe field pest of cowpea that causes massive flower abortion which eventually results to substantial yield reduction in Africa. There is paucity of information on the mode of gene actions controlling inheritance of resistance to flower bu...

The differential ability of genotypes of soybean (Glycine max) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) to thrive under low-phosphorus (P) conditions by utilising P from sources with low solubility was assessed in a greenhouse study with a low-P savanna soil collected from a research field in Fashola, sout...


Nwoke, O.C.Diels, J.Abaidoo, R.C.Sanginga, N.[Utilization of phosphorus from different sources by genotypes of promiscuous soybean and cowpea in a lowphosphorus savanna soil]Utilization of phosphorus from different sources by genotypes of promiscuous soybean and cowpea in a lowphosphorus savanna soil

Eight viruses are reported from cowpeas in Africa. Cowpea viruses are described from lowland, humid and sub-humid West Africa, as well as from mid-altitude ecological zones mainly found in eastern and southern Africa. Wherever facilities are limited and detailed characterization is not possible, ...

In genetic improvement of cowpea, one plant or variety rarely has every desirable characteristic. The recombination of desirable characteristics from different parental sources is achieved by crossing plants and the necessary cross pollinations. This document presents a method for the cross polli...

The complimentary effects of a native rhizobia strain (SAMFIX 286), lime and single superphosphate (SSP) as components of ISFM were evaluated on the biomass, nodulation and N2 fixation of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.). Lime was applied at the rate of 250 kg (Ca(OH)2) ha−1, while SSP was applied a...

Seed transmission of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vignicola was investigated to ascertain the importance of seed as a primary source of inoculum for bacterial blight disease in cowpea. The study was carried out using seeds of five cowpea varieties (TVx 12349, IT86D-721, IT82D-889, Ife Brown and TVx...

Field and laboratory experiments were conducted in the Sudan savanna site of IITA's experimental Station, Minjibir, Kano State, to study the survival of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vignicola in infested soil, cowpea seed, and debris. The experiment was conducted in a randomised complete block desi...

Striga gesnerioides, a plant parasitic phanerogam, is a known constraint to cowpea production in the sahelian and northern guinea savanna zones of West and Central Africa. A survey was done in 1990 across six countries to collect data on soil types, cowpea phenotype, and cropping systems with rel...
