• Phosphorus benefits from grain-legume crops to subsequent maize grown on acid soils of southern Cameroon (2006, background): “albus (Gardner and Boundy 1983), cowpea genotypes (Krasilnikoff et al. 2003; Sanginga et al. 2000), and faba bean (Nuruzzaman et al.”
• A staggered maize-legume intercrop arrangement robustly increases crop yields and economic returns in the highlands of Central Kenya. (2010, result): “This has also been reported by other authors (Giller et al., 1994; Sanginga et al., 2000; Sanginga, 2003).”
• Effect of Phosphorus fertilizer on growth and yield of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) (2014, background): “Legumes can fix up to 11-20kgN /ha (Sanginga et al., 2000), but this is not achievable in the tropics because of low soil fertility and poor farming practices.”
• Variation in phosphorus uptake efficiency by genotypes of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) due to differences in root and root hair length and induced rhizosphere processes (2003, background): “This resulted in early pod setting and a very low biomass production compared to the studies of Sanginga et al. (2000).”
• Raising Crop Productivity in Africa through Intensification (2017, background): “Cowpea is also tolerant to heat and performs better than many other crops on sandy soils with low level of organic matter and phosphorus [12].”
• Mycorrhizas and tropical soil fertility (2006, background): “Rhizobial inoculation increased AM colonization in soybean (Sanginga et al., 2000) and mucuna (Houngnandan et al.”
