“…Fe-deficiency chlorosis has been observed in several chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) crops grown on high pH calcareous vertisols in India (Kannan, 1984;Napinder et al, 1984;Sakal et al, 1987;Saxena and Sheldrake, 1980;Saxena and Singh, 1977;Singh et al, 1984;Singh et al, 1986) and in the West Asia and North Africa (WANA) region (Halila, 1983;Saxena, 1980). Significant reduction in the yield of chickpea was observed in India when foliar spraying of ferrous sulphate was not carried out to correct the Fe-deficiency chlorosis (Sakal et al, 1987;Saxena and Sheldrake, 1980;Singh et al, 1984).…”

Iron-deficiency chlorosis is commonly observed in some genotypes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in the Mediterranean region of West Asia and North Africa when grown on calcareous soils. An evaluation of 3267 germplasm lines of kabuli-type chickpea for iron-deficiency chlorosis on the calcareous soil (calcium carbonate content ~ 20%, pH ~ 8.5) of the principal research station of the International Centre for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) at Tel Hadya, northern Syria, revealed that most of the lines were tolerant while only 25 lines showed susceptibility. Foliar spray of 0.5% FeSO4 at the onset of chlorosis was effective in correcting the symptoms but did not result in significant increase in crop yield.Studies on the inheritance of resistance to iron-deficiency chlorosis revealed that the resistance was dominant and is governed by a single gene.To ensure elimination from the breeding material of chickpea genotypes inefficient in Fe-use on the calcareous soils of the Mediterranean region, a negative selection for Fe-deficiency chlorosis in the segregating populations in the field has proved effective. The method for field screening of large number of breeding lines and germplasm is described.

“…In some gates of these areas, it faces some nutrient deficiencies resulting in seed yield losses. One of the most important problems is iron (Fe) deficiency when the susceptible cultivars are grown in the problematic conditions such as in calcareous soil (Gowda and Smithson, 1980;Singh et al, 1986;Ali et al, 1988;Ali et al, 2000;Ohwaki and Sugahara, 1993;Zaiter and Ghalayini, 1994). Seed yield in the cultivated chickpea can reduce by 50% in Lebanon, Syria and India due to Fe-deficiency (Sakal et al, 1987;Ali et al, 2002).…”

When susceptible cultivars are grown in calcareous soils with high pH, significant yield loss due to iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis is brought about in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). One of the most efficient ways for solve this problem is improved of Fe-deficiency chlorosis via conventional breeding methods. In the study, genotypes ICC 4851 and ICC 4858, which are resistant to Fe-deficiency chlorosis, were crossed with genotype ICC 6119, which is susceptible to Fe-deficiency chlorosis, and studied genetics of Fe-deficiency chlorosis in F1 and F2 segregating generations. Fe-deficiency chlorosis was governed by a major recessive gene and affected by environment factors like high temperature. A negative selection seems to be an effective approach after segregation in F2 or later generations.

“…The most general are field experiments, growth in pots with calcareous soil and hydroponic culture with high bicarbonate and low Fe concentrations. Field experiments have been successfully used for herbaceous species such as soybean (Cianzio et al 1979) or chickpea (Singh et al 1986) and for woody species such as grape-vine (Kolesch et al 1987) or peach rootstocks (Byrne 1988). In pots and hydroponics culture the plants are grown under controlled and uniform conditions, and so avoid the variability of soil and environmental conditions characteristic of field experiments, and in general the experimental period required is shorter than in the field.…”

SummaryUnder certain conditions, olive trees grown on calcareous soils suffer from iron chlorosis. In the present study several olive varieties and scion-rootstock combinations were evaluated for their tolerance to iron chlorosis. Plants were grown over several months in pots with a calcareous soil, under two fertilization treatments. These consisted of periodic applications of nutrient solutions containing either, 30 µmol/L FeEDDHA or not Fe. Tolerance was assessed by the chlorosis and growth parameters of plants grown without Fe, compared to those plants grown with Fe. Results show that there are differences in tolerance among olive varieties and that tolerance is mainly determined by the genotype of the rootstock. These results open the way to use tolerant varieties for those conditions where iron chlorosis could become a problem.
