Genetic mapping, synteny, and physical location of two loci for Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. tracheiphilum race 4 resistance in cowpea [Vignaunguiculata (L.) Walp]. [PDF]

, 2013
Fusarium wilt is a vascular disease caused by the fungus Fusariumoxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum (Fot) in cowpea [Vignaunguiculata (L.) Walp]. In this study, we mapped loci conferring resistance to Fot race 4 in three cowpea RIL populations: IT93K-503-1 ...

Expression of Bottom Component RNA of Cowpea Mosaic Virus in Cowpea Protoplasts [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1980
Upon inoculation of cowpea protoplasts with the bottom component of cowpea mosaic virus, at least six virus-induced proteins (with sizes of 170, 110, 87, 84, 60, and 32 kilodaltons) are synthesized, but not the capsid proteins (37 and 23 kilodaltons). These bottom-component-induced proteins were studied with respect to their genetic origin

Monitoring African Megafauna in an Anthropogenic Landscape: A 15‐Year Case Study of the Vulnerable West African Giraffe

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Assessment of the nutritional content of cowpea seed exposed to plant-derived (azadirachtin, myristicin and α-humulene) insecticides against Callosobruchus maculatus

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research
The utilization of synthetic insecticides for safeguarding cowpea seed against C. maculatus infestation, while effective, faces substantial opposition due to safety apprehensions.

Morpho -genetic variability in F 2 progeny cowpea genotypes tolerant to bruchid (Callosobruchus maculatus) [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2019
Callosobruchus maculatus Fab. is a major threat to cowpea production reducing the quality, quantity and market value of cowpea grains. A cheap and easy identification method would be a valuable tool in identifying and breeding resistant genotypes in the ...

Production, breeding and potential of cowpea crop in Brazil. [PDF]

, 2013
About 50 years ago cowpea was reported as a relatively minor tropical legume. However, in the last years, it has been emerging as one of the most important food legume of the 21st century (SINGH, 2010). Brazil is not out of this panorama.

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

Expression of Cowpea Mosaic Virus M RNA in Cowpea Protoplasts

Journal of General Virology, 1989
Summary Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) M RNA is translated in vitro into two polyproteins of M r values 105000 (105K) and 95K. Using antiserum against the small capsid protein VP23, these proteins have now been detected in cowpea protoplasts, a few hours after inoculation with CPMV.

The genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes of the carrot weevil, Listronotus oregonensis, reveal adaptive mechanisms for host specialisation and symbiotic interactions

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Comprehensive genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes reveal 14,637 genes in Listronotus oregonensis, advancing genetic insights into a key agricultural pest. Compared with related species, L. oregonensis exhibits reduced chemoreceptor gene families but expanded detoxification gene clusters, reflecting its narrow host range and adaptability.

Proximate composition and sensory acceptability of cowpea-based pudding produced from cowpea cultivated using different weed control methods

Acta Universitatis Sapientiae: Alimentaria, 2023
This study evaluates the effect of different weed control methods on the proximate composition and sensory properties of cowpea-based pudding produced from cowpea flour.
