Selection Of Chickpea (Cicer Arietinum L.) Genotypes For Resistance To Ascochyta Blight [Ascochyta Rabiei (Pass.) Labr.], Yield And Yield Criteria, Cengi̇z Toker, Hüseyi̇n Çanci
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab., is the most important disease in the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in many countries, including Turkey. Efforts to control the disease were made using host-plant resistance as the most efficient and economical way. A total of 41 exotic genotypes were evaluated for resistance to A. rabiei and also yield and yield criteria near Antalya in the west Mediterranean region of Turkey in the 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 seasons. After every 2 test lines, the susceptible check ILC 263 was sown. When the susceptible check was completely killed by ascochyta blight, blight severity was …

In eastern Anatolia, the sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) has been grown as a confectionary crop for a long time, but oilseed sunflower types have more recently been grown commercially. No information on the performance of oilseed sunflower hybrids for this region is, however, available. Therefore, during the 1998 and 2001 growing seasons, a field experiment was conducted to evaluate the agronomic performances and genotypic differences of some sunflower hybrids under Erzurum conditions. In this study 20 sunflower genotypes were used. The 2-year results showed that the genotypes differed significantly in all the characteristics investigated, except for kernel percentage. Similarly, the …
