Partial resistance to powdery mildew (Erysiphe polygoni) in twenty one cowpea cultivars was assessed over two to three seasons under field conditions. Mildew incidence was recorded as number of leaflets affected/plant and severity as AUDPC or infection rate using Gompertz transformation. Irrespective of the parameter used to measure mildew resistance or the season, mean response of cvs V-105, V-269, V. 276, V-282 and V 385 showed clear slow-mildewing, while RC-48, S-488, TVX-944-02E, V-27, V-36 and V-118 were rated as susceptible. Mildew resistance in some cultivars was negatively correlated with that for the leaf rust (Uromyces vignae). AUDPPC was a more robust disease parameter than infection rate and showed a good correlation (r(2) = 0.79) with incidence
