Southern blight (Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc.) of cowpea: yield-loss estimates and sources of resistance

2002-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Replicated field studies were conducted over a three-year period to assess the yield-reducing potential of southern blight (Sclerotium rolfsii) on cowpea, and to evaluate the range of genetic variability in cowpea germplasm for resistance. Southern blight was shown to have a considerably greater impact on dry-seed yields than that suggested by a review of the published literature. The disease caused a dry-seed yie...
