    Abstract

    The incidence of Aphis craccivora, which transmits chickpea stunt disease to chickpea [Cicer arietinum], was studied in a nursery consisting of 4 rows of a mixture of 10 legumes sown around and between every 6 chickpea rows in a 0.5-ha field at Hissar, Haryana, India, in December 1982-January 1983, using sticky traps. Three distinct peaks in catches were observed on 24 December, 28 January and 4 March. Three peaks were also observed in the incidence of the aphid on chickpea, occurring 1-2 weeks later than the peaks in trap catches
