Nine cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) breeding lines were grown in 13 experiments under sole crop and intercrop management, with and without insecticide application, in Nigeria. Cowpea was intercropped with cassava (Manihot esculenta Cranz), maize (Zea mays L.) and maize-cassava in the fores...

A comparative study was conducted with four improved cowpea (2 pod bug resistant and 2 susceptible) varieties to assess the effect of autoclaving at 105 ~ under 15 psi for 30 min on their protein quality, as measured by the levels of some antinutritional factors and performance of rats fed the di...

Cowpea is a self-pollinated crop and this is encouraged by the arrangement of floral parts. However, outcrossing has been reported and frequency of occurrence could vary depending on the genotypes involved and the environment where grown. Insects have been implicated in the movement of pollen in ...

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detectviruses in649 cowpea leafsamples collectedfrom115 fields during a 3-year survey carried out from 1991 to 1993 throughout all agroecological zones in Nigeria. Six viruses, cowpea aphid-borne mosaic potyvirus (CAMV), blackeye cowpea mosaic...

Shoot regeneration via organogenesis was achieved from axenic cowpea [Vigna unguiculata subsp. unguiculata L. (Walp.) Verde.] hypocotyls and cotyledons of advanced breeding lines and varieties. Cotyledons and embryos were excised from green immature pods. The apical parts of the embryos were remo...

Factors responsible for successful rescue of immature embryos of cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] and V. vexillata (L.) and for in vitro embryo development were studied. A new basal medium for embryo development in vitro was formulated on the basis of the mineral composition of embryos. Sucr...

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) is an important cash, food and nutritional security grain legume crop in the semi-arid regions of sub-Saharan Africa. However, its productivity is hampered by several biotic stress factors including numerous insect pests that infest and damage the crop at all i...

The parasitic weed, Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke, is a major constraint in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] production semi-arid regions of sub-Sahara Africa. Several sources of resistance have been identified. Of these, B301 has shown complete resistance to Striga across several count...

The effects on yield of varying the planting date and planting pattern of morphologically different cowpea cultivars intercropped with pearl millet were studied in two field trials. The interaction between cowpea cultivars and planting date was highly significant. There was a sharp reduction in c...

The interactions between cowpea and one of its key pests, Megalurothrips sjostedti (Trybom), were evaluated via a simulation model based on three modules building the core of the cowpea growth model, i.e. the time-varying distributed delay, the functional response acquisition function, and the me...
