Abstract in English
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in the Mediterranean climate can experience
two types of drought: intermittent drought stress and terminal drought stress.
A study was conducted during early August 2002 to early April 2003 under
glasshouse conditions, to study the response of six chickpea genotypes, four
Kabuli and two Desi, to soil moisture levels.
