Spatial distribution and association of biophysical factors with chickpea chlorotic stunt and pea seed-borne mosaic viruses affecting legume crops in Ethiopia
Food legumes are key commodities produced in sole and mixed cropping system in Ethiopia. Their productivity has been affected recently by virus infections. Field surveys were conducted from 2018/19 to 2021/22 cropping ...
Distribution and mating type characterization of chickpea blight (Didymella rabiei (Kov.) v. Arx) in Ethiopia
We have assessed the distribution and mating type of chickpea blight (Didymella rabiei (Kov.) v. Arx) from a total of 350 and 272 fields in major chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) growing areas of Ethiopia for two consecutive ...
Pathogen diversity and mating types of Didymella rabiei isolates collected from Morocco
Ascochyta blight (Didymella rabiei) is an economically important disease of chickpea in Morocco and other parts of the world. Knowledge about pathogen diversity and their aggressiveness in the Moroccan D. rabiei population ...
Integrating Sowing Date with Chickpea Genotypes in Managing Fusarium Wilt in Morocco
Integrating Sowing Date with Chickpea Genotypes in Managing Fusarium Wilt in Morocco: Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.p ciceris (Foc) is a devastating soil-borne disease of the chickpea. The disease causes ...
Genetic diversity of two viruses affecting lentil and chickpea crops in the highlands of Ethiopia
Chickpea and lentil are the major legume crops grown in Ethiopia, providing people with balanced nutrition of proteins, minerals, fibers, and carbohydrates. Since 2019, farmers in the highlands of Ethiopia are losing their ...
Plant Health Innovation Platform at Qob Elias, Lebanon: farmer participatory approaches for wide dissemination of pest management innovations
Integrated pest and disease management (IPDM) represents a range of environmentally-sound approaches to crop protection and is increasingly recognized as an essential component of sustainable agricultural development. To ...
Potential of Volatile Organic Compounds in the management of insect pests and diseases of chickpea
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is the second legume crop cultivated in Morocco after the Faba bean, and presents economical and nutritional benefits. However, the crop productivity is low due to biotic factors and drought. ...
Identification of New Genetic Resources Under Drought Stress in Response to Roots and Nodules in chickpea
Ten high nodulation and two poor nodulation chickpea genotypes were selected from the previous field experiment to study the effect of drought stress on various nodules, root characteristics, and physiological traits of ...
Development of Multiple Stress-Resistant Kabuli Chickpea Germplasm for Diverse Growing Regions
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is an important crop in dry areas of the world. The major production challenges of chickpea production are Ascochyta blight (AB), wilt/root rot, cold, and drought. ICARDA is mandated to develop ...
Assessment of Genetic Variability and Heritability of Agronomic Traits of Ethiopian Chickpea (Cicerarietinum L) Landraces
Ethiopia has a large number of Desi type chickpea landraces. In the country, limited information is available on the performance of the landraces regarding of important agronomic traits. Thus, 202 chickpea landraces and ...
