Podwall toughness has no effect on cowpea resistance to the legume pod borer
The possibility of the involvement of pod wall toughness in the resistance of cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp., to the legume pod borer, Maruca testulalis was studied. The toughness of non-intact and intact pod wall increased with age, but the rate varied at different growth stages of the pod as...
