The genome of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.)

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is a major crop for worldwide food and nutritional security, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, that is resilient to hot and drought-prone environments. A high-quality assembly of the single-haplotype inbred genome of

Screening of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) genotypes for waterlogging tolerance using morpho-physiological traits at early growth stage.

open access: yesPlant Science, 2021
The majority of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) produced in the U.S. is planted shortly after the summer rains and subsequently depends on rain or artificial irrigation.

Physicochemical and functional properties of two cowpea cultivars grown in temperate Indian climate

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2015
Flours of two local cowpea cultivars namely Red cowpea and Black cowpea were analysed for proximate composition, pasting and functional properties. The crude protein and fat contents were higher for Black cultivar than the Red cultivar.

Physicochemical, thermal, and functional properties of gari (fermented‐cassava product) enriched with cowpea hull at different stages of production

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, 2023
Gari was produced using the traditional method and enriched with freshly produced cowpea hull in wet form to improve the nutritional composition. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of stages of inclusion of cowpea hull on some quality ...

Phosphorus doses alter the ionic homeostasis of cowpea irrigated with saline water [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2021
HIGHLIGHTS Irrigation using water with electrical conductivity above 2.5 dS m-1 is not adequate for ‘Paulistinha’ cowpea. Increment in phosphorus dose does not increase phosphorus content in cowpea plant.

Effects of Cropping System and Cowpea Variety on Symbiotic Potential and Yields of Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) and Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) in the Sudano-Sahelian Zone of Mali

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, 2012
Many cowpea varieties (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) have been proposed by research in Mali. None of these varieties were investigated for their symbiotic potential in terms of root nodulation and mycorrhizal infection.
