Abstract:Cowpea is a dual-purpose protein crop which has a high nutritional value. However, many problems such as cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus limit its production. This study aimed at assessing the resistance of varieties of cowpea to cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus (CABMV). Thus, a complete diallel cross between five cowpea varieties was done in a partially balanced incomplete block plan (alpha design) with three replications. The F 1 descendants obtained and their parents were evaluated using five characters. Res… Show more
