Morphophysiological biometry and grain production in cowpea under different phosphorus levels

Abstract: In tropical and semi-arid regions of Brazil, phosphorus is one of the most limiting elements of cowpea productivity. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of applying five phosphorus doses in the soil on morpho-physiological and production components in three improved cultivars of cowpea. The experiment was carried out at the São Fernando farm located in José de Freitas, PI, Brazil, in a Plinthosol with a low phosphorus content. The experimental design was complete randomized block design with four r… Show more

“…Considerando apenas o nutriente fósforo, um aumento de número de vagens por planta também foi observado por Bezerra et al (2018), que estudando características de feijão-caupi submetidas a diferentes níveis de P, observaram um aumento de 168,4% no número de vagens por planta, comparando o tratamento com a máxima aplicação de P2O5 (240 kg ha -1 ), com o tratamento controle (sem aplicação de P2O5). Segundo os autores, o número de vagens por planta é o principal componente de produção do feijão-caupi.…”

“…Due to increasing popularity, an estimated 8.81% of total pulse production area is used for cow pea production in Bangladesh (BBS, 2020) which shows very encouraging results in the pulse production. Cowpea grain contains up to 25% protein and it is a good source of carbohydrate, vitamins, amino acids like thiamine and niacin, various minerals and dietary fiber (Bezerra et al, 2018;Boukar et al, 2019). Cowpea also plays an important role in providing soil nitrogen through symbiosis with specific bacteria.…”
