Abstract

Uninocu1ated cowpea plants contain only 10-44 nodules per plant (1.4,9,10).Unusually high riJdule counts were obtained by 'Tewari (11) working in eastern Nigeria.Inocul4ted cowpea contains 10-86 nodules per plant (5,9,10).The efficiency of coWpea nodules has not been critically examined.Nodulation c)f the soybean, an introduced legume ,is eve!n more of a problem under field conditions (1).The number of nodules per soybean plant varies from
