Evaluation of a novel technique for screening cowpea varieties for resistance to the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus
A novel method for screening cowpea varieties for resistance to the postharvest insect pest Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) was compared to conventional screening techniques at the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture (IITA) laboratory in Ibadan, Nigeria. The new te...
