(2013-04-29)This study investigated the association between flavonoid profiles of different cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata) varieties with anti-inflammatory properties as a possible benefit against inflammatory bowel disease. Cowpea, a ...
-
(2012-07-16)Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is a highly nutritious, drought tolerant crop with several agronomic advantages over other legumes. This study demonstrated the association of different cowpea phenotypes with specific phenolic ...
-
(2017-02-22)Cropping systems involving legumes are increasing due to the costs and environmental concerns attributed to N fertilizer. A green manure cover crop in a cropping system can benefit the soil by improving fertility and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)Growth parameters of interplanted cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata) including plant height, leaf area, dry weights of leaves, stems, flower clusters, green pods, and seed as well as soluble and total protein of each plant part ...
-
The effect of nitrogen fixation on the protein quality of southernpeas, Vigna unguiculata (Cowpeas) (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)The effects of nitrogen fixation on protein quality of southernpeas were studied. Differences in levels of nitrogen fixation were induced through variety selection and inoculation with Rhizobium bacteria. Growing seasons ...
-
(2009-05-15)Cowpea (Vigna ungiculata L. Walp) is a major food and fodder legume in poor countries, particularly Sub-Saharan Africa countries. It is generally produced in sandy, acid soils, deficient in phosphorus (P) which severely ...
-
(2016-12-02)Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is an important legume crop commonly used for grains and for fodder in some parts of the world. It is grown in over 65 countries worldwide. In the United States, it is primarily grown ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Cowpea, because of its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, coupled with its drought tolerance and ease of digestion, has become an important proteinaceous crop throughout the semi-arid regions of the world. Little research ...
-
(2018-10-30)Double cropping can increase farm profit and food availability, and may improve soil function by sustaining year-round vegetation and building soil organic matter. However, replacing summer fallow with warm-season double ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)Drought resistance and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) potential of 437 diverse cowpea genotypes were determined. Plants were grown in irrigated and dryland plots in 1979 and 1980 near Lubbock, Texas. Drought resistance ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)Analysis of antioxidant activity (AOA) of entries in the 2002 Regional Southernpea Cooperative Trial revealed not only significant differences among entries, but that entries with pigmented (black and red) seed coats were ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Field and greenhouse studies were conducted at College Station, Texas to investigate the interrelationships between biological N2 fixation and seed yield in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.]. Seed yield of inoculated ...
-
(2022-01-11)The CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system has been tested, validated, and applied in plants since its introduction in 2012. For plant breeders, the CRISPR system’s ability to provide targeted genetic modifications is an ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The host plant and soil P level are two of the major factors that determine the benefits derived from vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) associations. This investigation was conducted to maximize the benefits of the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Cowpeas, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp., are considered relatively drought resistant as compared to other grain crops, yet substantial seed yield reductions in response to drought stress, especially during reproductive ...
