Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Cowpea drought tolerance was dominant.
- Observation Type 2 drought tolerance was controlled by a different single dominant gene designated Rds 2.
- Observation Type 1 was dominant over Type 2 in the allelism test.
- Observation The F2 segregated 3 Type 1 to 1 Type 2 plants.
- Observation The authors inferred the two genes are allelic or tightly linked.
- Recommendation The authors cautioned that both tolerance types may not be bred into the same cowpea line.
