The relationship between resistance of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) accessions to low temperatures and diseases in Siberia
The aim of the study is to investigate the relationship between the cold tolerance of Vigna samples and their susceptibility to pathogenic micromycetes. Ten Vigna unguiculata samples were used. Pollen viability in vitro was assessed in a 20 % PEG 6000 solution at 25 °C for 3 hours (control) and at 6 °C for 24 hours (cold tolerance assessment). Seed germination under low temperatures was evaluated by germinating ...
