Molecular characterization of cowpea breeding lines for Striga resistance using SCAR markers
S. gesnerioides (Willd) Vatke is a major biological constraint to cowpea production in the dry savanna of sub-Saharan Africa. Yield losses caused by S. gesnerioides in these regions are estimated in millions of tons annually, and prevalence of Striga soil infestation is steadily increasing. The avai...
