Aqueous plant extracts of Malva parviflora L. and Artemisia ludia L. were tested in the field on cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) plants. The extracts were added alone and in combination. The treatments were applied just one day before irrigation. Data obtained revealed that the growth, yield and protein content of cowpea were stimulated by 10% aqueous extract of M. parviflora and the mixture of 10% Malva with 20% Artemisia. The data also showed that the soil fertility was improved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
