Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Inoculation at 10 DAP had a more severe effect than inoculation at 30 DAP.
- Intervention effect Plants inoculated at 30 DAP were taller than those inoculated at 10 DAP.
- Intervention effect Plants inoculated at 30 DAP produced more leaves than those inoculated at 10 DAP.
- Observation Most cowpea plants inoculated at 10 DAP died and did not produce seeds.
- Observation OLOYIN was the most tolerant cultivar and produced reasonable yields when infected at 30 DAP.
- Observation CABMV caused the most severe growth and yield effects in IT86D-719.
- Observation SBMV had the greatest effect on OLO II.
- Observation CMeV had the greatest effect on OLOYIN.
- Intervention effect CABMV plus CMeV greatly reduced OLOYIN yield.
- Observation Double infection involving CABMV eliminated IT86D-719 yield.
- Observation Triple infection caused complete yield loss in all three cowpea cultivars.
