Heterosis for yield and it’s components in fodder cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.)
A study was conducted to estimate the level of heterosis for yield and it’s contributing traits in fodder cowpea. Three lines and twelve testers were crossed in a line × tester mating design. A total of thirty six F1 hybrids along with 15 parents were evaluated for days to 50 % flowering, plant heig...
