Additional Information

The authors are thankful to the ICRISAT management for their encouragment in bringing out this bulletin. The information in this bulletin has been compiled from the experience of the ICRISAT authors after conducting repetitive experiments on the screening techniques. We sincerely appreciate the time and effort that ICRISAT’s Legume Pathology staff members have spent in preparing this material. Finally, the authors thank Dr Harikishan Sudini for his critical review and useful suggestions.

Abstract

Chickpea production is constrained by many fungal diseases. In general, soil borne diseases like fusarium wilt, dry root rot, collar rot, black root rot and foliar diseases like ascochyta blight and botrytis gray mold caused by different species of fungi are major consideration in all chickpea growing areas of the world. A large volume of literatures is available on studies related to various aspects of chickpea diseases including biology, epidemiology and management methods. In this bulletin, attempts have been made to briefly describe the distribution, economic importance, symptoms and causal organism of the above mentioned diseases of chickpea. The bulletin provides comprehensive stepwise information on screening methods for all the economically important diseases, and will be useful to all researchers involved in chickpea disease management through host plant resistance. Updated list of resistant sources has also been provided.
