Genetic Analysis Of Seed Yield And Some Traits In Cowpea Using Diallel Analysis, Christelle Jou-Nteufa, Ercan Ceyhan
Genetic Analysis Of Seed Yield And Some Traits In Cowpea Using Diallel Analysis, Christelle Jou-Nteufa, Ercan Ceyhan
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Cowpea is an essential economic crop in underdeveloped and developing countries mainly grown by small farmers. In terms of seed yield and some agricultural characteristics, this study was carried out to determine the genetic structures and the general and specific adaptability of the genotypes. The trial, which included F1 hybrids and parents, was established under Konya ecological conditions with 3 replications in 2020 in the “Random Blocks Trial” design. Based on the results of the preliminary analysis of variance, it was determined that there was sufficient variation in the hybrid populations formed in terms of all traits examined. Nonadditive and …
Evaluation Of Drought Tolerance In Arkansas Cowpea Lines At Seedling Stage, Qirui Cui
Evaluation Of Drought Tolerance In Arkansas Cowpea Lines At Seedling Stage, Qirui Cui
Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences Undergraduate Honors Theses
Cowpea [Vigna unguiculate (L.) Walp.] is not only a healthy, nutritious and versatile leguminous crop, it also has a relatively high adaptation to drought. Researches have shown that cowpea lines have a high tolerance to drought, and many of them can survive over 40 days under very hot and dry conditions. The cowpea (Southern pea) breeding program at the University of Arkansas (UA) has been active for over 50 years and has produced more than 1,000 advanced breeding lines. And the purpose of this study is to evaluate the drought-tolerant ability in Arkansas cowpea lines and use the drought tolerant …
Feeding The Dairy Cow, H. P. Davis
Feeding The Dairy Cow, H. P. Davis
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Cows produce milk from feed and water only. Therefore feed in proper quantity and quality is usually the limiting factor governing a cow's production up to the limit of her capacity.
