COWPEA (VIGNA UNGUICULATA) CROPS IN AFRICA CAN RESPOND TO INOCULATION WITH RHIZOBIUM

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) is the most important food grain legume in Africa. Cowpea is nodulated by rhizobium bacteria in almost all soils of the tropics, but studies performed in the 1970s and 1980s in Nigeria suggested only modest responses of grain yield in the field to inoculation of se...
