Abstract

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important legume crop in the world and mostly cultivated during the cool winter season (Nov-Feb) in India. In recent, chickpea production and yield drastically reduced in India due to abnormal monsoonal rainfall distribution and soil conditions has been changed due to several improper management of fields and especially soil borne disease like wilt. On regularly, Fusarium wilt incidence occurring early sown cultivars. The wilt incidence occurred during 18-35 days on ramification stage, so the plant loses their reproduction stage and yield also retarded. Several strategies were applied in management of wilt but the pathogen (F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris) recovered their virulence ability and broke the host resistance. Continuously screened the selection of resistant lines, combined application of biocontrol treatments, plant defense activators and fungicides recorded the highest yield with least incidence of wilt.
