Abstract

The roots and stems of each of the five advanced chickpea lines produced fungitoxic compounds when extracted in methanol. Three different types of antifungal compounds designated as compound A, B and C were identified through the bioautography on TLC plates. The compound B at Rf value 0.87 was produced in higher amounts in the lines 1004/99, 99115 and 99105 with better wilt resistance. Compounds B and C appears to have no significant role in wilt resistance.
