Field experiments were conducted in Oklahoma in 1993 and 1994. Cowpeas [ Vigna unguiculata  (L.) Walp.] were grown using either noninoculated seed and 23 kg·ha –1  of preplant nitrogen (N) fertilizer (conventional) or  Rhizobium -inoculated seed and no preplant N fertilizer (reduced input). Sample plants were excavated at first pod set and analyzed for nodulation and root morphology. Additional plants were harvested at the green-shell stage to determine seed yield and plant N concentration. Conventional and reduced input cowpeas did not differ in dry weight of root mass components, total root dry weight, shoot dry weight, shoot: root ratio, nodule distribution among root morphological components, total nodule fresh weight, plant N concentration, or green-shell seed yield. Most of the nodule fresh weight generally was associated with nodules on the basal and lateral roots. Results indicate that cowpea root characteristics are not necessarily altered by the presence or absence of added N fertilizer at a given location.
