Abstract Brazil can expand cultivated areas without deforestation by restoring degraded pastures and optimizing grain production through off‐season crops. This study evaluated eight off‐season treatments, including fallow, monocrops, and intercropping combinations, and their effects on maize (Zea mays L.) intercropped with guinea grass (Megathyrsus ...

Allozyme diversity of cultivated cowpea Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.
A survey of allozyme variation in cultivar-groups of cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] was undertaken by examining 21 enzyme systems encoded by 36 loci in 271 accessions representing the five cultivar-groups. Very low levels of variation were found within accessions, which is typical of self-pollinating species.

Even though histamine plays an important role in human health, it has been associated with food intoxication and intolerance episodes. The most relevant, current state of knowledge regarding histamine's biochemical and health aspects is provided. Histamine levels are provided for 17 food groups, including 335 food types and 11,437 samples, allowing ...

Investigating the effects of low input drying procedures on maize (Zea mays L.), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) and bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) seed quality in Benin [PDF]
Four drying regimes (sun, shade, silica gel and conventional drying room) were compared using seeds of Zea mays L. (cv. DMR-ESR-W), Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (cv. NI 86-650-3) and Vigna subterranea (L.) Verde. {local white variety).

Our metagenomic study revealed the impact of sorghum cultivated in soils previously grown with cowpea, soybean, and maize on rhizosphere microbiome and soil nitrogen cycling. ABSTRACT Legumes form mutualistic interactions with specific soil microbiomes that fix atmospheric nitrogen and improve soil fertility.

Abstract The need for low‐cost carrier materials is paramount for rhizobium inoculants production, especially in sub‐Saharan Africa. This research studied different feedstocks biochar as potential carriers for inoculant production. Coconut coir (CC), coconut shell (CS), rice husk (RH), and sugarcane bagasse (SB) biochars were used as carriers, and ...

Cowpea bean production under water stress using hydrogels
The population increase and the need of intensifying food production, coupled with the scarcity of water resources, have led to the search of alternatives that reduce consumption and optimize the water use during cultivation.

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