The study looked at different traits in cowpea plants to see which ones were most closely linked to seed yield. They found that traits like plant height, number of branches, pod length, and seed weight were strongly connected to how many seeds each plant produced. By focusing on these specific traits, farmers can increase the amount of seeds they get from their cowpea plants.
