Genetic gain in yield and agronomic characteristics of cowpea cultivars developed in the Sudan savannas of Nigeria over the past three decades
A field study was conducted to determine the rate of genetic improvement in grain and fodder yields and associated agronomic and physiological changes of determinate and semideterminate cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] genotypes developed in the Nigerian Sudan savannas in 1974 to 2004. Results...
