Abstract

A greenhouse experiment was conducted on chickpea genotypes Local Variety, Pant G-114, ICCL 87322 and H-208 to study the effect of soil amendments on seedling emergence and mortality of wilt-infected (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri [Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris]) seeds. The soil amendments comprised farmyard manure, vermicompost and poultry manure. Farmyard manure was the most effective. It increased seedling emergence (maximum in Pant G-114) and reduced seedling mortality with maximum reduction.
