Reaction of Some Mutants and Modern Cultivars of Chickpea Against Gray Mold and Fusarium Wilt

Dr. M. A. Kashem
Principal Scientific Officer
Plant Pathology Division Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture BAU Campus, Mymensingh-2202

Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Nine induced mutants such as P-34, L-84, P-35, P-70, P-66, L-67, P-51, L-32 and L-86 and three modern cultivars such as Barisola-2, Hyprosola and Binasola-2 were evaluated against gray mold and fusarium wilt. The experiments were done in the diseased nursery under natural condition at three locations (Ishurdi, Jamalpur and Kishoregonj) of the Plant Pathology Division of Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture following randomized block design with 3 replications. The unit plot size was 2.5m × 3m. Row to row and seed to seed spacing were 30 cm and 10 cm, respectively. Two hundred forty (240) seeds were sown in eight lines/plot on the first week of November. Fertilizers were applied @ 20 kg N, 63 kg P₂O₅ and 32 kg K₂O ha^-1 at the time of final land preparation. During data collection all plant per plot were considered. Gray mold was scored on the disease symptoms of leaves, stem and pods at flowering and pod maturing stages during two years (1995 &1996). Fusarium wilt incidence (%) was recorded from seedling stage to harvest during three years (1995, 1996 and 1997). Yield of each plot was taken separately and per plant yield was calculated. The disease severity were scored following the scales

Keywords: Chickpea mutants, Gray mold, Fusarium wilt

Location: Insurdi, Jamalpur and Kishorgonj

Start Date: 15-11-1995

End Date: 20-03-1996

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Chickpea

Objectives:

To evaluate chickpea mutants against gray mold and Fusarium wilt.

Methodology:

The experiments were done at three locations of Bangladesh following RBD with three replications during two years of 1995-96 for gray mold and three years for Fusarium wilt incidence. The data were taken seedling stage to harvest following the scale (Dey et al. 1993).
