Characterization of chickpea differentials for pathogenicity assay of ascochyta blight and identification of chickpea accessions resistant to Didymella rabiei (2004, methodology): “Plant age is known to affect chickpea resistance to ascochyta blight, with older plants being more susceptible than younger plants ( Chongo & Gossen, 2001 ).”
Ascochyta blight of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.): a review of biology, pathogenicity, and disease management (2005, background): “Plant age was observed to have a profound effect on susceptibility of different chickpea genotypes to AB infection, with plants at podding stage being most susceptible (Chongo and Gossen 2001).”
Comparison of the epidemiology of ascochyta blights on grain legumes (2007, background): “Similarly, partially resistant chickpea cultivars were shown to lose resistance to A. rabiei with increasing plant age (e.g., Trapero-Casas and Kaiser 1992b; Singh and Reddy 1993; Chongo and Gossen 2001), but it was also suggested that newly developed plant tissue on these plants showed higher resis”
