Cowpea

  • Chapter
Virus and Virus-like Diseases of Major Crops in Developing Countries

Abstract

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important crop, contributing to the health and livelihood of millions of people in tropical and sub-tropical countries, particularly Africa (Nigeria, Niger, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Senegal, Togo) and Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand, Nepal, China, Malaysia) (Rachie, 1985). Young leaves, immature pods, and dry-stored seeds from the plant serve as food, particularly for rural families. The crop also provides cash income and animal forage/fodder, and residue from the crop is valued for soil enrichment. Cowpea crops have also become important in southern states of the U.S. and in South America, particularly Brazil, as advanced, multiadapted cultivars (Quin, 1997).
