Wilt/dry root rot pathogen affects in all growth stages results in yield losses in terms of both quality and quantity parameters of grain and this reinforces the need to exploit several management strategies including biological and chemical control. | Studies on role of bio control agents and fungicide against soil borne dry rot wilt complex in chickpea
