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 …

The effects of autumn and spring sowing on chickpea yield were investigated by examining yield components in a 2-year (2000-2001 and 2001-2002 growing seasons) field experiment in a temperate region, in north-west Turkey. Twenty-one chickpea genotypes (2 registered varieties of winter type for the Mediterranean region and 19 breeding lines) were evaluated in 2 sowing seasons (autumn and spring). Autumn-sown crops were subjected to -2.1 °C and snow cover twice (2 and 4 days) in the first year and -7.6 °C and snow cover 3 times (8, 14 and 6 days) in the second year. All genotypes were resistant to …
