Clean seed and seed dressing – an essential first step to managing chickpea Ascochyta

We aim to demonstrate the effectiveness of using clean seed and seed applied fungicide to minimise the amount of Ascochyta in a chickpea crop, and to demonstrate the effectiveness of early season foliar fungicides to keep disease levels at bay.

本研究旨在验证两种防控策略的应用成效：其一为采用洁净种子（clean seed）搭配种子施用杀菌剂，以最大限度降低鹰嘴豆作物内壳二孢属病菌（Ascochyta）的种群数量；其二为验证生育早期喷施叶面杀菌剂，将病害发生水平控制在可控范围内的效果。
