Soilborne Diseases and their Control

Abstract: Seed and seedling diseases, root rots, and wilts are caused by a number of soilborne fungi, all of which are facultative saprophytes and can survive in soil for long periods in the absence of a susceptible host. In general, these diseases are serious yield constraints where short rotations or monoculture of legume crops are the rule. Seedling diseases and root rots are enhanced by poor seed vigor, poor seedbed preparation, and other biotic and abiotic stresses which predispose the host plant. Control of these … Show more

“…Although winter sowing improves yields, it is rarely adopted in Mediterranean regions because the cool and wet conditions also favour Ascochyta blight. Other minor diseases of chickpea are more geographically localised and include pod borer (Helicoverpa armigera) in Australia and India (Nene and Reddy 1987), botrytis grey mould in areas that favour overgrowth and dense canopy , root rots in the tropics and sub-tropics (Kraft et al 2000), rust in high-altitude regions (Nene and Reddy 1987) and broomrape in winter-sown areas (Rubiales et al 1999).…”

“…Usually soil-borne pathogens are associated with damping-off in the earlier stages, whereas in the latter stages seed-borne pathogens can indorse damping-off. However, both explanations understand that damping-off includes inhibition of seeds germination or seedling emergence after germination, or rotting and breakdown of seedlings over the soil (Kraft et al 2000). Cotton seedling disease complex sources of serious economic losses in several production countries annually.…”
