“…Some of these fungi species are usually found living as parasites or symbionts on different parts of many plants. Fungi species identified in this study have been credited to diversely form an association one way or the other with cowpeas as reported by Ajibade and Amusa (2001) who noted different species of fungi associated with several cultivars of cowpea; Houssou et al, (2008) and Bosah (2013) found these fungi on the various parts of cowpea. Kumar et al, (2004) reportedly identified some in association with cowpea seeds while Adandonon et al, (2004) found them causing stem rot in cowpea.…”
