مقارنة طرائق تقويم مختلفة لاختبار أصناف عدس مقاومة لمرض الذبول الوعائي الذي يحدثه الفطر F. oxysporum f. sp. lentis

Abstract EN

Lentil wilt disease, caused by F.

oxysporum f.

sp.

lentis, is considered the most important disease affecting lentils in Syria causing significant economic losses.

None of the available control methods (fungicide sprays, seed treatment, etc...) were found effective, and breeding or selecting for disease resistance is considered the most practical approach for its control.

Methodology was developed (in the laboratory, plastic house and in the field) to screen lentil genotypes for their reaction to lentil wilt infection.

Five different screening methods were evaluated, and the advantages and disadvantages of each were determined.

In addition, the reliability of these methods in evaluating the field resistance of lentil genotypes was determined.
