Response to selection for grain yield and correlated response for grain size and earliness in cowpea based on early generation testing
Large grain size and earliness to flowering are traits critical to cowpea adoption in the West African savannahs. This study reports on the correlated response to selection in these two traits in the two populations in which selections were made primarily for grain yield potential. Further, the pres...
