Popis: A glass-house study was conducted to determine the effects of four commonly used herbicides (pendimethalin, metobromuron, metolachlor and prometryne) applied pre-emergence at rates of 0, 0.125, 0.625 and 1.25 kg ha−1, on leaf nitrate concentration (NO3−C), nitrate reductase activity (NRA), leaf crude protein and seed protein in two cowpea cultivars, 60 day (60D) and Ife brown (IB).
