“…The genotypes belonging to different gene pools exhibiting high levels of resistance with diverse mechanisms can be used in breeding programs for resistance to H. armigera. In chickpea, the wild species in the primary and secondary gene pool are crossable with the cultigen by conventional techniques (Pundir and Mangesha 1995;Sharma et al 2005c). There has been little success in introgression of resistance genes from the tertiary gene pool into the cultigen.…”

The noctuid pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera is one of the most damaging pests of chickpea, Cicer arietinum. The levels of resistance to H. armigera in the cultivated chickpea are low to moderate, but the wild relatives of chickpea have exhibited high levels of resistance to this pest. To develop insect-resistant cultivars with durable resistance, it is important to understand the contribution of different components of resistance, and therefore, we studied antixenosis and antibiosis mechanisms of resistance to H. armigera in a diverse array of wild relatives of chickpea. The genotypes IG 70012, PI 599046, IG 70022, PI 599066, IG 70006, IG 70018 (C. bijugum), ICC 506EB, ICCL 86111 (cultivated chickpea), IG 72933, IG 72953 (C. reticulatum), IG 69979 (C. cuneatum) and IG 599076 (C. chrossanicum) exhibited non preference for oviposition by the females of H. armigera under multi-choice, dualchoice and no-choice cage conditions. Based on detached leaf assay, the genotypes IG 70012, IG 70022, IG 70018, IG 70006, PI 599046, PI 599066 (C. bijugum), IG 69979 (C. cuneatum), PI 568217, PI 599077 (C. judaicum) and ICCW 17148 (C. microphyllum) suffered significantly lower leaf damage, and lower larval weights indicating high levels of antibiosis than on the cultivated chickpea. Glandular and nonglandular trichomes showed negative correlation with oviposition, while the glandular trichomes showed a significant and negative correlation with leaf damage rating. Density of non-glandular trichomes was negatively correlated with larval survival. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprints of leaf surface exudates showed a negative correlation of oxalic acid with oviposition, but positive correlation with malic acid. Both oxalic acid and malic acid showed a significant negative correlation with larval survival. The wild relatives exhibiting low preference for oviposition and high levels of antibiosis can be used as sources of resistance to increase the levels and diversify the basis of resistance to H. armigera in cultivated chickpea.

“…Detached Pod Assay to Assess Antibiosis Mechanism of Resistance in Wild Relatives of Chickpea to the Third-Instar Larvae of H. armigera Relative resistance of wild relatives of chickpea was evaluated by using third-instar larvae of H. armigera. Detached inflorescences with pods were cut with the blades and immediately placed in a slanting manner into 3% agar-agar medium in a 250-ml plastic cup (9 × 6.5 cm diameter; Sharma et al 2005b). There were five replications for each accession in a completely randomized design.…”

“…However, only low to moderate levels of resistance have been identified against H. armigera in the cultivated chickpea germplasm (Sharma et al 2005a). The wild relatives of chickpea have shown high levels of resistance to H. armigera compared with the cultivated chickpea (Sharma et al 2005b(Sharma et al , 2006. It is well known that the wild germplasm contains useful genes for resistance to insects that may not be present in the cultigen (Singh and Ocampo 1997).…”

Wild relatives of crops are an important source of resistance genes against insect pests. However, it is important to identify the accessions of wild relatives with different mechanisms of resistance to broaden the basis and increase the levels of resistance to insect pests. Therefore, we evaluated 15 accessions of wild relatives of chickpea belonging to seven species and five genotypes of cultivated chickpea for their resistance to pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera, which is the most damaging pest of chickpea. The test genotypes were evaluated for resistance to H. armigera using detached pod assay. Data were also recorded on activity of the digestive enzymes in the midgut of the larvae fed on different wild relatives of chickpea. All the wild chickpea genotypes suffered lower pod damage and weight gained by the third-instar larvae of H. armigera was lower when fed on them compared with the cultivated chickpea. The accessions, IG 69979 (Cicer cuneatum), PI 599066, IG 70006, IG 70018, IG 70022 (Cicer bijugum), IG 599076 (Cicer chrossanicum), and IG 72933, IG 72953 (Cicer reticulatum), showed high levels of resistance to H. armigera. There were significant differences in protease activity in larval gut of H. armigera fed on different wild relatives of chickpea. Total protease, trypsin, and chymotrypsin activities were lowest in larva fed on PI 599066 (C. bijugum) compared with that in the larvae fed IG 69979 (C. cuneatum) and IG 70022 (C. bijugum). Aminopeptidase activity was highest in the larvae fed on IG 70022 (C. bijugum) and IG 599076 (C. chrossanicum), whereas lowest activity was recorded in the larvae fed on ICC 3137 and KAK 2 (susceptible checks). The variation in protease activities may be due to the presence of protease inhibitors in the wild relatives or hyperproduction of enzymes by the larvae as result of protease inhibitor activity of the wild relatives, resulting in low weight gain by larvae. The results suggested that wild relatives of chickpea with diverse mechanisms of resistance can be exploited to increase the levels and diversify the basis of resistance to H. armigera in cultivated chickpea.

“…In addition, several isoflavones (such as judaicin, judaicin 7‐Oglucoside and judaicin 7‐O‐6″‐O‐malonylglucoside) in the wild relatives of chickpea and pterocarpans (maackiain 3‐O‐glucoside and maackiain 3‐O‐6″‐O‐malonyl glucoside) have been reported to act against H. armigera by antibiosis (Stevenson and Veitch , Sharma et al. ). Although isoflavones have been reported to correlate with resistance to pests and diseases, few studies have addressed their effects on SPB resistance by 2014.…”

Soybean pod borer (SPB) (Leguminivora glycinivorella (Mats.) Obraztsov) causes severe loss of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) seed yield and quality in some regions of the world, especially in north-eastern China, Japan and Russia. Isoflavones in soybean seed play a crucial role in plant resistance to diseases and pests. The aim of this study was to find whether SPB resistance QTL are associated with soybean seed isoflavone content. A cross was made between 'Zhongdou 27' (higher isoflavone content) and 'Jiunong 20' (lower isoflavone content). One hundred and twelve F 5:10 recombinant inbred lines were derived through single-seed descent. A plastic-net cabinet was used to cover the plants in early August, and thirty SPB moths per square metre were put in to infest the soybean green pods. The results indicated that the percentage of seeds damaged by SPB was positively correlated with glycitein content (GC), whereas it was negatively correlated with genistein (GT), daidzein (DZ) and total isoflavone content (TI). Four QTL underlying SPB damage to seeds were identified and the phenotypic variation for SPB resistance explained by the four QTL ranged from 2% to 14% on chromosomes Gm7, 10, 13 and 17. Moreover, eleven QTL underlying isoflavone content were identified, and ten of them were encompassed within the same four marker intervals as the SPB QTL (BARC-Satt208-Sat292, Satt144-Sat074, Satt540-Sat244 and Satt345-Satt592). These QTL could be useful in marker-assisted selection for breeding soybean cultivars with both SPB resistance and high seed isoflavone content.
