Prüfung der Ursachen für Bodenmüdigkeit bei Erbsen

Summary

The term ‘legume soil fatigue’ is frequently attributed to plant diseases. Three different soils known to show symptoms of the soil fatigue during grain legume cultivation were examined with the differential method to assess the cause of the soil fatigue. Distinct types of field peas were analysed with regard to the various treatments of the method.
Dry matters of the root and shoot as well as the degree of necrotic tissue were examined. Results indicated that the cause for the soil fatigue can mainly be assessed
to the availability of nutrients for the soils tested and therefore should also be considered for the cause of yield depressions in grain legumes.
