- Intervention effect Mutant line MoussaM43-20P14 produced higher yield under water stress.
- Method / resource Stress Tolerance Index was better than other criteria for selecting tolerant cowpea mutants with higher yield under moderate stress (SI = 35%).
- Intervention effect Water stress had a negative effect on cowpea leaf chlorophyll content.
- Association High temperature during the experiment increased the water stress effect, mainly on the non-irradiated checks.
