摘要: The major pest problems in chickpea, i.e. pod borers (Helicoverpa armigera and H. punctigera), leafminer Liriomyza cicerina, black cutworm Agrotis ipsilon, aphids (Aphis craccivora), semilooper Autographa nigrisigna bruchids (Callosobruchus spp.), their management options (cultural, biological chemical controls) are discussed. Low to moderate levels of resistance have been identified the germplasm, a few improved cultivars with borer high grain yield developed. Germplasm accessions wild relatives chickpea (Cicer bijugum, C. judaicum reticulatum) can be used increase diversify bases armigera. Efforts also underway utilize molecular techniques borer. Synthetic insecticides, agronomic practices, nuclear polyhedrosis virus, entomopathogenic fungi, bacteria natural plant products evaluated as components chickpea.
