Combining ability and genetic components for pod and seed traits in cowpea lines
The identification of suitable parental genotypes potentially generating superior lines with traits contributing to the overall yield of cowpea is an important step in the development of improved varieties. Eight parents and their 28 hybrids obtained through diallel crossing design were evaluated in...
