Genotypic variation of bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea L.Verdc) for phosphorus efficiency
Low phosphorus (P) in agricultural ecosystems limits growth of bambara. Field trials were carried out at 2 P levels (0 and 35 kg/ha) to determine the variation of 12 bambara genotypes in phosphorus efficiency, identify P-efficient and responsive ...

Rheological properties of Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea) modified starches
Physicochemical and rheological properties of modified Bambara groundnut (BGN) starches were assessed to enhance their industrial food applications. Native BGN starch (NBGNS) was chemically modified via a green chemistry grafting procedure using ascorbic

Photoperiod control of yield and sink capacity in Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea) genotypes [PDF]
In Bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L) Verdc], long photoperiods can cause a decline in pod and seed number. While negative photoperiod effects on pod yield have been reported, positive effects and the existence of genotypes less sensitive for ...
