Abstract
The reaction of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum) to wilt and root rot pathogens was studied in a loose and a compacted soil with bulk densities of 1.2 Mg m -3 and 1.5 Mg m -3 , respectively. Compacted or loose soil was infested separately or in various combinations with Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri, F. solani f. sp. pisi, Pythium ultimum, and/or Thielaviopsis basicola. The effects of wilt and root rot pathogens on disease severity were additive with various combinations of pathogen-infested soil (.)
