Abstract

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri (Foc) is one of the most important fungal diseases of chickpea, limiting its productivity in nearly all chickpea- growing countries worldwide. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of identifying wilt resistant chickpea genotypes using gamma rays and EMS as a novel technique. Induced mutagens cultivars further subjected to the field screening and water culture technique. The test mutagens had the greatest impact on the chickpea cultivar Vijay, followed by JG-62, BDNG 798, and JAKI 9218. Cultivar JG 62 was found to be highly susceptible, with a wilt incidence ranging from of 97.35 to 100%. Cultivars Vijay and BDNG 798 showed resistant and moderately resistant reactions to wilt disease in both screening techniques, whereas cv. JAKI 9218 showed moderately resistant and moderately susceptible reactions.
