Popis:	Bambara groundnuts (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc) provide essential proteins for African farmers, but the yield is largely affected by Alectra vogelii infestation, particularly on nutrient-depleted soils. Laboratory and field investigations were conducted to assess the influence of phosphorus rates and Bambara groundnut genotypes on Alectra vogelii infestation. In the laboratory, a 4 × 26 factorial experiment, varying phosphorus rates (0, 20, 30 and 40 kg ha−1) across 26 genotypes, revealed a significant (p
