Assessment of Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Resistance and Genetic Characterization of Forty-Six Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) Genotypes in Ghana

The parasitic weed, Striga gesnerioides, imposes physiological stress on cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) resulting in significant yield loss in the regions of northern Ghana. This warranted identification of resistant cowpeas for sustainable production. The current work aim was to identify Str...
