e1“This study investigates the effect of salt (NaCl) on the germination of seeds of 10 genotypes of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata)”
e2“The results indicated that the Mean Germination Time (MGT), Time to 50% Germination (T50), Germination Index (GI), Coefficient of Velocity of Germination (CVG), and Germination Percentage (GP), varied between 2.33 and 5.51 days; 2.83 and 14.87 days; 16.66 and 1.63; 0.53 and 0.11; 87.11 and 27.98% respectively”

- Intervention effect NaCl decreased GI, CVG and GP of cowpea seeds as concentration increased, relative to distilled water control.
- Intervention effect Salt concentrations increased MGT and T50 of cowpea seeds, relative to distilled water control.
- Observation Germination variables differed significantly among salinity treatments, cowpea genotypes and their interaction.
- Observation Genotypes KEB-CP118, OU59A, OU100 and ICV12 were tolerant to salt stress in germination.
- Observation Genotypes ET11, NO1036, MTA22 and KEB-CP009 were moderately tolerant to salt stress in germination.
- Observation Genotypes KEB-CP098 and NO193 were susceptible to salt stress and were most affected by salinity.
