Abstract

Botrytis gray mold (BGM) is a crucial biotic constraint to chickpea production in several South Asian countries. This publication contains summaries of the findings and recommendations made at the Second Working Group Meeting on BGM of chickpea (Rampur, Nepal, 14-17 Mar 1993). Research progress during the past two years in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Nepal is reviewed. The present status of BGM management, and future research priorities, are discussed. Nine papers on BGM of chickpea are presented, dealing with such aspects as resistance screening and multilocational trials, breeding programs, disease management, and the role of crop microclimate. The discussions suggest that since high level resistance is presently unavailable, an integrated disease management program should be pursued, using a combination of moderately resistant cultivars, modified cultural methods, and judicious use of chemicals.
