Aim: A field study was conducted during the late cropping seasons of 2015 and 2016 at Akamkpa (latitude 5°15 ' N and longitude 8°22' E), south southern Nigeria, to evaluate the response of some legume genotypes to seed inoculation with NoduMax, a Rhizobium inoculant developed by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA). Study Design and Methodology: Treatments were factorial combinations of inoculated and noninoculated seeds of Cowpea, Groundnut, Bambara groundnut, Bebi (Viny Lima) bean, Mucuna bean, and African yam bean, laid out in randomized complete block design replicated thrice. Results: The response of the test crops to inoculation varied with growth stage. At the seedling stage, effective nodule number was not significantly affected in all but Mucuna bean in which there was a 42.7% reduction. At pre-anthesis, Bambara groundnut, Bebi bean, Groundnut, and Cowpea Original Research Article
