Abstract
One hundred and two isolates of Ascochyta rabiei differing in their cu ltural characters were selected for pathotype analysis from a large co llection of isolates obtained from chickpea growing areas of Pakistan during 1984 - 92. On the basis of pathogenicity on 11 chickpea differe ntials, the isolates were classified into 8 pathogenic groups. Out of 102 isolates tested, only 6 were highly virulent, 8 least virulent whe reas others were in between the two extremes.
