A new compound (C20H18O9) was isolated from bambara groundnut seeds (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) and identified as a luteolin glycoside based on 1H, 13C 2D nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy data previously reported data. This exhibited similar scavenging activity for DPPH radical to Trolox had higher inhibitory effect superoxide anion radicals than gallic acid Trolox. C20H18O9 an radic...

Field trials were conducted in two agro-climatic zones of the country (Lungi and Kabala) to evaluate effect planting methods inter-row spacing on growth parameters three Bambara groundnut cultivars. The experiment consisted a factorial 18 treatment combinations (mound flat), (50 cm x 10 cm, 50 15 20 cm), cultivars (Lubam1, Lubam 2, Kabam 1). study shows that using mounds produced higher values ...

Drought is a major constraint to crop production worldwide and landraces are one of the important genetic resources to crop improvement in the dry areas. The objective of this study was to investigate transpiration and yield responses of bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea L. Verdc.) landraces exposed to a intermittent drought spell at an early reproductive stage. The four landraces (S19-3, Un...

In plant breeding and agricultural research, biplot analysis has become an important statistical technique. The goal of this study was to find the winning genotype(s) for test settings in a part Southwest region Nigeria, as well investigate nature extent genotype × environment interaction (GEI) effects on Bambara groundnut (BGN) production. experiment carried out four environments (two separate...
