Cowpea: an overview on its nutritional facts and health benefits

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2018
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is a legume consumed as a high-quality plant protein source in many parts of the world. High protein and carbohydrate contents with a relatively low fat content and a complementary amino acid pattern to that of cereal grains ...

Inheritance of resistance to the cowpea aphid in cowpea

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1987
Inheritance of resistance to cowpea aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch, in three resistant cultivars of cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp, was studied. The parents, F1 and F2 population were grown in an insect-proof screenhouse. Each 3-day-old seedling was infested with 10 apterous adult aphids. Seedling reaction was recorded when the susceptible check was

The ultrastructural appearance of cowpea mosaic virus in cowpea

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1975
Cowpea mosaic virions (CPMV) were present in large numbers in cowpea tissue, both in dispersed and crystalline aggregates. Virion aggregates were found after buffered glutaraldehyde or chromate fixation at pH 7.2. Five to 10 min in 5% glutaraldehyde was sufficient for good fixation and yielded sections of greater electron-density than prolonged ...

Efficacy of ozone for Callosobruchus maculatus and Callosobruchus chinensis control in cowpea seeds and its impact on seed quality

, 2021
The insecticidal efficacy of ozone was evaluated against the adults of Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) and C. chinensis L. on stored cowpea seeds under laboratory conditions. Ozone was assessed at concentrations of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 g/m3.

Selenate and selenite affect photosynthetic pigments and ROS scavenging through distinct mechanisms in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) walp) plants.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020
Selenium (Se) is a beneficial element to higher plants. Application of Se at low concentrations enhances the antioxidant metabolism reducing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by plant membrane cells.

Physicochemical properties, in vitro starch digestibility, and estimated glycemic index of resistant starch from cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) starch by autoclaving-cooling cycles.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
Recently, legumes starch was studied extensively due to high amylose and resistant starch contents, and low glycemic index (GI). We evaluated the impact of autoclaving-cooling cycles (single, triple, five) on the physicochemical properties, in vitro ...
