Screening for Resistant Sources in Chickpea Accessions against Fusarium Wilt
Anurag Kumar [5] | Shiva Nath [2] | Anand Kumar Yadav [2]
Abstract: One hundred one genotypes of chickpea were screened for resistance to fusarium wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Ciceri at Students Instructional Farm of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar, Kumarganj, Faizabad (U. P. ) during Rabi, 2014-15. It was observed that 57 lines were resistant, 28 were tolerant while 16 were susceptible to the wilt disease at seedling stage. Whereas, 31 genotypes were resistant, 26 were tolerant and 44 were susceptible at reproductive stage. On an average basis 56.44 % disease resistance was recorded at early stage and 30.69 % at reproductive stage, whereas 15.84 % disease incidence was observed at seedling stage and 43.56 % at reproductive stage. The disease incidence of tolerant genotypes was screened at seedling stage of 27.72 % and 25.74 % at reproductive stage.
