description: "This study of black seed coat and pod tip color in cowpea used: (1) 94 F6-8 RILs derived from California Blackeye 27 (CB27), which has a medium-sized black eye seed coat and purple pod tips, and IT82E-18, which has a solid brown coat and green pod tips; (2) a RIL population provided by the IITA with 121 F6-8 RILs derived from a cross between Sanzi, a landrace with a speckled black and purple seed coat and purple pod tips, and Vita 7, which has a solid tan coat and green pod tips; (3) the UC-Riverside MAGIC population of 305 F8 RILs; (4) the UC-Riverside minicore population of 367. Accessions within the minicore population show great phenotypic diversity, including in seed coat color traits."
