Management of Fusarium Wilt of Pisum sativum: A Review
Department of Botany, Post Graduate College, Ghazipur- 233001, U.P., India
*Corresponding author
Abstract:

Pisum sativum is an important legume crop belongs to family fabaceae and it is commonaly known as garden pea or green pea. It provides a good source of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, phosphorus minerals, and bioactive compounds. The young seeds can also be used in soup, canned, fozen, and dried peas are commonly used during the off-season. Peas are cultivated in almost all country around the world and regarded as an essential part of the human diet. The young pods and immature pods of this crop are cultivated as vegetables, while the mature dried pods are consumed as legumes. Peas have soil- improving and conditioning properties. The diseases affects the field pea production including fungal diseases such Ascochyta blight, powdery, downy mildew, Fusarium wilt, and rust. These diseases can be controlled by use of plant extracts. The present paper is a review of management of Fusarium wilt of Pisum sativum.
