“…The association analysis employed in this study provides such required information. The results of correlation analysis between organic acids and RL scores were in accordance with the findings reported by Golla et al [72], who revealed that leaf surface exudates of chickpea genotypes showed a negative correlation of oxalic acid with oviposition, but a positive correlation with malic acid. Similar results were obtained for oxalic acid in association with leaf damage by H. armigera larvae [73].…”

Introgression of Resistance to Leafminer (Liriomyza cicerina Rondani) from Cicer reticulatum Ladiz. to C. arietinum L. and Relationships between Potential Biochemical Selection Criteria

The chickpea leafminer, Liriomyza cicerina (Rondani), is one of the most destructive insect pests of cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in the Mediterranean region under field conditions. For sustainable and environmentally friendly chickpea production, efforts have been devoted to managing the leafminer via decreasing the use of insecticides. Breeding of new resistant varieties is not only an efficient and practical approach, but also cost-effective and environmentally sensitive. To improve resistant varieties, breeders need reliable biochemical selection criteria that can be used in breeding programs. The first objective was to investigate the possible introgression of resistance to the leafminer from C. reticulatum Ladiz. (resistant) to C. arietinum (susceptible), then, to estimate inheritance of resistance to the leafminer for efficient breeding strategies, and finally, to study organic acid contents as selection criteria. Recombinant inbred lines (RILs) and their parents were evaluated using a visual scale of 1–9 (1 = free from leafminer damage and 9 = mines in more than 91% of the leaflets and defoliation greater than 31%) in the field under natural infestation conditions after the susceptible parent and check had scores of >7 on the visual scale. Superior RILs were found for resistance to the leafminer, and agro-morphological traits indicating that introgression of resistance to leaf miner from C. reticulatum to C. arietinum could be possible using interspecific crosses. The inheritance pattern of resistance to the leafminer in RILs was shown to be quantitative. Organic acids, including oxalic, malic, quinic, tartaric, citric and succinic acids in RILs grown in the field under insect epidemic conditions and in the greenhouse under non-infested conditions were detected by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In general, organic acids were found to be higher in resistant RILs than susceptible RILs. Path and correlation coefficients showed that succinic acid exhibited the highest direct effects on resistance to the leafminer. Multivariate analyses, including path, correlation and factor analyses suggested that a high level of succinic acid could be used as a potential biochemical selection criterion for resistance to leafminer in chickpea. Resistant RILs with a high seed yield resembling kabuli chickpea can be grown directly in the target environments under leaf miner infestation conditions.

“…Some lines with partial resistance have been reported in the cultivated germplasm and have been used in chickpea breeding (Sharma, 2001; Sharma, Pampapathy, Lanka, & Ridsdill‐Smith, 2005; Singh, Sharma, Varshney, Sharma, & Singh, 2008). Moderate levels of resistance against H. armigera have been observed in some accessions of the wild species including C. reticulatum, C. echinospermum , C. judaicum , and C. pinnatifidum (Golla, Rajasekhar, Sharma, Hari Prasad, & Sharma, 2018; Sharma et al., 2005). C. reticulatum is compatible for crossing with C. arietinum and therefore identification of QTLs for H. armigera resistance from C. reticulatum species will be very useful for chickpea breeding.…”

Genetic enhancement for resistance against the pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera is crucial for enhancing production and productivity of chickpea. Here we provide some novel insights into the genetic architecture of natural variation in H. armigera resistance in chickpea, an important legume, which plays a major role in food and nutritional security. An interspecific recombinant inbred line (RIL) population developed from a cross between H. armigera susceptible accession ICC 4958 (Cicer arietinum) and resistant accession PI 489777 (Cicer reticulatum) was evaluated for H. armigera resistance component traits using detached leaf assay and under field conditions. A high‐throughput AxiomCicerSNP array was utilized to construct a dense linkage map comprising of 3,873 loci and spanning a distance of 949.27 cM. Comprehensive analyses of extensive genotyping and phenotyping data identified nine main‐effect QTLs and 955 epistatic QTLs explaining up to 42.49% and 38.05% phenotypic variance, respectively, for H. armigera resistance component traits. The main‐effect QTLs identified in this RIL population were linked with previously described genes, known to modulate resistance against lepidopteran insects in crop plants. One QTL cluster harbouring main‐effect QTLs for three H. armigera resistance component traits and explaining up to 42.49% of the phenotypic variance, was identified on CaLG03. This genomic region, after validation, may be useful to improve H. armigera resistance component traits in elite chickpea cultivars.

Efforts are being made to develop chickpea varieties with resistance to the pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera for reducing pesticide use and minimizing the extent of losses due to this pest. However, only low to moderate levels of resistance have been observed in the cultivated chickpea to this polyphagous pest. Hence, it is important to explore wild relatives as resistance sources to develop insect-resistant cultivars. Therefore, we studied different biochemical components that confer resistance to H. armigera in a diverse array of wild relatives of chickpea. Accessions belonging to wild relatives of chickpea exhibited high levels of resistance to H. armigera as compared to cultivated chickpea genotypes in terms of lower larval survival, pupation and adult emergence, decreased larval and pupal weights, prolonged larval and pupal developmental periods and reduced fecundity of the H. armigera when reared on artificial diet impregnated with lyophilized leaf powders. Amounts of proteins and phenols in different accessions of chickpea wild relatives were significantly and negatively correlated with larval weight, pupation and adult emergence. Phenols showed a negative correlation with pupal weight and fecundity, but positive correlation with pupal period. Total soluble sugars showed a negative correlation with larval period, but positive correlation with pupation and pupal weight, while tannins showed a positive correlation with larval weight, pupation and adult emergence. The flavonoid compounds such as chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, naringin, 3,4-dihydroxy flavones, quercetin, naringenin, genistein, biochanin-A and formononetin that were identified through HPLC fingerprints, exhibited negative effects on survival and development of H. armigera reared on artificial diet impregnated with lyophilized leaf powders. The wild relatives with diverse mechanisms of resistance conferred by different biochemical components can be used as sources of resistance in chickpea breeding programs to develop cultivars with durable resistance to H. armigera for sustainable crop production.
