It is essential to increase the pH of tropical soils in order to reduce acidity and promote soil
and crop productivity. Therefore, experiments were carried out in 2020 and 2021 to assess …

Choosing the species suitable for cultivation in intercropped systems is a critical limiting
factor for grain and forage production. This study aimed to evaluate the growth, nodulation …

Drought stress following climate change is likely a scenario that will have to face crop
growers in tropical regions. In mitigating this constraint, the best option should be the …

Cowpea is one of the pulse crops that present the highest potential for growing in the
Semiarid region of Brazil. Lowcost vegetable protein source, it has resilience to adverse …

This study investigates the genetic determinants of seed coat color and pattern variations in
cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), employing a genome-wide association approach. Analyzing a …

The infertility of sandy soil hampers the growth of many crops. Typically, chemical fertilizers
are used to handle this issue, but they are expensive and have deleterious implications on …

Under a changing climate, the biologically viable management of weeds and the exploration
of the genetic divergence of spreading and towering cultivars of forage cowpea in different …
