Description Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri and Meloidogynejavanica are important pathogens of chickpea.
Interrelationships between F. oxysporum f.sp. ciceri and M. javanica were investigated on 53
Fusarium wilt-resistant chickpea genotypes in pot experiments. All of the genotypes were susceptible
to M. javanica. Fusarium wilt resistance in one genotype (ICC 12275) was ineffective in the presence
of M. javanica, and all the plants completely wilted. Resistance in four genotypes (ICCs 11319, 11322,
12254, 12272) was reduced in the presence of the nematode. Vascular discoloration above the collar
region of the plants, an indication of susceptibility to the fungus, was observed. Wilt resistance in 48
genotypes was not modified by M. javanica. The effects of interactions between the pathogens on
shoot and root weights, gall index, and galled area of root were significant only on 10-28% of the
genotypes. Presence of the fungus reduced the adverse effects of nematodes on growth of 15% of
the genotypes. Appraisal of wilt-resistant chickpea genotypes for their reactions to combinations of
the two pathogens would help to identify and develop chickpea cultivars with wilt resistance stable
in presence of M. javanica.
