Phenotyping of Bambara Groundnut Landraces for Resistance to Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goidnich.
Bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdcourt] is one of the most important subsistance legumes cultivated inBurkina Faso, due to the high nutrient content of its seeds. However, bambara groundnut production can be seriouslyconstrained by fungal diseases that reduce yields. Macrophomina phaseolina is one of fungal pathogen that causes importantdamage in bambara groundnut fields in Burkina…
