Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the resistance of some cultivars of winter chickpea (Ghab1, Ghab2, Ghab3, Ghab4, Ghab5), and the spring (Al-Bayyadi and Al-Marrakchi) and inputs chickpea (FLIP03-118, FLIP03-142, FLIP05-44, FLIP95-67) to Infection with Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris under field conditions in Al-Ghab in 2021 and 2022; According to two scales of degree of resistance (infection rate, disease severity DII%). The results showed that all cultivars and inputs were resistant to high resistance (according to the two scales) at the flowering period during the two years. The resistance decreased at the maturity period, all inputs were medium resistance in 2021, and ranged between resistance to high resistance in 2022. AL-Bayyadi and AL-Marrakchi were sensitive to medium sensitivity in 2021 and resistant in 2022 (according to the two scales). Ghab1, Ghab2, and Ghab3 were sensitive to medium sensitivity, while Ghab4 and Ghab5 were medium resistance in 2021. Ghab2 remained resistant to high resistance while Ghab1 and Ghab3 were medium resistance, Ghab4 and Ghab5 were resistant in 2022, according to the two scales. FLIP03-118, FLIP03-142, FLIP05-44, Ghab4, Ghab5 and Al-Bayyadh gave high productivity during the planting seasons 2021 and 2022.
Keywords: Chickpea, Fusarium wilt, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris, resistance, cultivars, AL-Ghab.
