First Report of Ascochyta Blight on Field Pea ( Pisum sativum ) Caused by Didymella pisi in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The areas under the field pea are constantly increasing in Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, pea is susceptible to a large number of diseases, especially to Ascochyta blight, which is considered as one of the most economically important diseases of legume crops throughout the world (Le May et al. 2014; Rubiales et al. 2018). In May 2016, characteristic Ascochyta blight symptoms were observed on stems and flowers of field pea plants (Pisum sativum L.) grown at Velika Ilova (northern Bosnia and Herzegovina).
