Ascochyta - 2006
Echos from Asco-2006
A collaborative Ascochyta Network is launched
The production of grain legumes is limited by abiotic and biotic stresses. An important biotic stress is caused by aerial fungi of the Ascochyta genus (A. pinodes on pea, A. fabae on faba bean, A. rabiei on chickpea, A. lentis on lentil), and this leads to severe damage and yield losses in the major producing regions. To hasten the search for better control mechanisms for these ascochyta blights, expert scientists working on these diseases came together to develop a joint comparative approach for similar pathosystems, different Ascochyta species, and different aspects of the pathogen, the plant or the crop production system.

Welcome & Objectives
It was a great pleasure to welcome the participants at the first international Ascochyta workshop on grain legumes in Le Tronchet (Brittany, France) on 2–6 July, 2006. Participants at the workshop assessed the Ascochyta blight diseases of the cool season food and feed legumes in order to establish priorities for future collaborative research. More...
