Smartphone‐based proximal sensing as an accessible platform for improved physiological phenotyping
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract We tested whether smartphone‐based sensing could deliver accurate physiological traits in an accessible and low‐cost platform. A smartphone, carried by someone walking through a field, was used to generate a high‐resolution time series of images for 10 genotypes of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.).

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2080-2088, November 2026.Legume plants offer generous benefits for both the planet and people by supporting sustainable farming, food and feed systems through their ability to symbiotically fix atmospheric nitrogen. While grain legumes are cultivated and consumed globally, their adoption, market development, and integration into cropping systems vary.

Genetic analysis of abiotic and biotic resistance in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] [PDF]
, 2009 Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] is a most versatile African crop, it feeds people, their livestock and because of its ability in nitrogen-fixation, it improves soil fertility, and consequently helps to increase the yields of cereal crops when ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2205-2216, November 2026.Crop wild relatives (CWR) in Zimbabwe are reservoirs of beneficial agronomic traits, yet they remain under‐documented and poorly conserved. This study developed Zimbabwe's first national CWR checklist based on a conceptual framework combining floristic, ecological and ethnobotanical data, revealing over 2700 taxa, with nearly 1000 edible species ...

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 6, November 2026.ABSTRACT Legumes are increasingly used as functional ingredients in plant‐based foods. However, their compact endogenous structure restricts techno‐functional properties. Conventional fractionation methods that isolate proteins further impair these properties and generate co‐products.

Isolation and characterisation of mutants of cowpea mosaic virus [PDF]
A nitrous acid-induced, temperature sensitive mutant of cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) known as 8-14, (Evans 1985, Virology 1985, 141, 275-282), was characterised.
