Diallel analysis of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) genotypes under water deficit stress.

Abstract excerpt

Combining ability is referred to as the hybridization value of the parental genotypes involved in the crossing to develop hybrids. The best parents are selected through combining ability methods and subsequently used to produce high yielding and resistant hybrids. Thus, the objectives of this study were to (i) understand the nature and action of genes controlling water deficit tolerance, and (ii) identify...
