“…Current findings are in agreement with Sharma et al (2023) who found reduction in carbohydrates in chickpea grains after C chinensis infestation. Results of this study are similar to those of Deepika et al (2020) who found carbohydrates loss from 37.67 to 48.65%. Current finding is partially consistent with the findings of Saxena and Saxena (2011) who stated 45 to 54% carbohydrate content reduction after 6 months of pest infestation.…”

| Pulse beetle, Callosobruchus chinensis L., is one of the primary pests of stored grain commodities and causes considerable quantitative and qualitative losses. This study was conducted to assess the relative susceptibility of some desi (Punjab-2008 and Thal-2006) and Kabuli (Punjab-2009 and CM-2008) varieties of chickpea, Cicer arietinum L. Quantitative and qualitative losses incurred by the infestation of C. chinensis were determined under laboratory storage conditions. Maximum grain weight loss was recorded in Thal-2006 (9.07%) after 120 days of infestation followed by CM-2008 (8.37%), while relatively lower weight loss (6.95%) was recorded in case of Punjab-2009. After 90 days of infestation, mean weight loss values for Thal-2006, CM-2008, Punjab-2008 and Punjab-2009 were recorded as 8.21, 5.95, 5.36 and 5.13%, respectively. Relatively lower values of grain weight loss were recorded at 60 and 30 days post-infestation. Minimum grain loss value (0.75%) was recorded in case of control (with no pest infestation). Highest and lowest moisture contents were recorded for Thal-2006 (16.32%) and Punjab-2009 (14.25%), respectively. Similarly, C. chinensis infestation caused highest and lowest grain germination reduction values for Thal-2006 (23.67%) and Punjab-2009 (10.32%), respectively recorded at 120-day post-treatment. Results of qualitative losses revealed that protein and ash contents reduced maximally up to 12.46 and 1.11% in CM-2008 variety, respectively. While minimum protein and ash content reductions were noted in Punjab-2008 variety (i.e., 8.58 and 0.75%), respectively. Similarly, highest reduction in crude fat and carbohydrate contents (i.e., 1.18 and 13.21%) were noted for Thal-2006 and CM-2008 varieties, respectively. While, Punjab-2008 and Punjab-2009 exhibited minimum reductions (i.e., 0.91 and 7.8%) in crude fat and carbohydrate contents, respectively. From overall study results, it is concluded that C. chinensis can result in considerable damage to stored chickpea grains. Moreover, rough surface chickpea varieties were comparatively less preferred by C. chinensis than smooth surface varieties which are found more susceptible to pest infestation.Novelty Statement | This study is novel as it demonstrates that pulse beetle Callosobruchus chinensis cause considerable qualitative and quantitaive damage to smooth surfaced chickpea varieties than rough surface chickpea varieties.

“…The results are in agreement with the findings of Sreedhar et al (2020) and they reported that higher per cent of sugars in groundnut varieties are preferred by bruchids. According to Deepika et al (2020), the infestation in stored chickpea varieties is more with increase in the total soluble sugars and vice versa. Results are also in accordance with Kosini et al (2019) and Singh and Singh (2020).…”

Biochemical Factors Influencing Resistance of Black Gram to Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Background: Pulses constitute a cornerstone of the Indian diet, renowned for their rich protein content and nutritional benefits, frequently dubbed as the vegetarian’s protein powerhouse. Black gram not only provides nutritional benefits but also improves soil properties and fixes atmospheric nitrogen. If left unattended in storage, damage inflicted by three species of callosobruchus viz., C. chinensis, C. maculatus and C. analis on black gram seeds could result in substantial losses, both in quantity and quality. In the context of insect resistance, a host genotype’s ability to resist insect pests is demonstrated through non-preference, antibiosis, or tolerance, and is closely linked to the morphological, physiological and biochemical traits of the germplasm. The present study aims to pin point the specific biochemical properties of black gram seeds that contribute to their resistance against the pulse beetle. Methods: The experiment was conducted at the Department of Entomology and Agriculture Zoology, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, BHU, Varanasi during 2020-21. Bioassay investigations were undertaken on twelve varieties of black gram, evaluating various parameters including oviposition, adult emergence, mean development period, growth index, susceptibility index, and the biochemical constituents that could potentially impact the proliferation of the pulse beetle population. Result: The results revealed that tannins and phenols played a significant role in providing resistance. In contrast varieties with high sugars and proteins are susceptible to pulse beetle. However, an increase in the level of phenols and tannins in seeds may interfere with consumer acceptance and these aspects can be used in the breeding programme so as to develop host plant resistance against C. maculatus.

“…Trypsin inhibitor has long been considered as an important anti-nutrient factor (Gatel, 1994), but recently some of them have been found to be beneficial to humans and animals (Kennedy, 1998;Ashton-Rickardt, 2012) or can be used as food processing agents (Boudida et al, 2016;Singh & Benjakul, 2018). In addition, trypsin inhibitor has been found to be partially associated with resistance to the bruchid or pulse beetle (Callosobruchus chinensis) in many legume species, including grass pea (Deepika et al, 2020).…”

Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus) is a valuable grain legume known for its high protein content and rich essential amino acid profile. Its exceptional characteristics such as drought tolerance, high adaptability to extreme conditions, disease resistance, and low cultivation inputs, make it particularly suitable for cultivation by resource-poor farmers. However, the potential use of grass pea is limited due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors, including protease inhibitors, especially trypsin inhibitor. This study aimed to develop a rapid and reliable method for measuring TI activity in seeds of grass pea and to investigate the influence of genotype and environment on trypsin inhibitor (TI) activity in seeds of grass pea. A set of 25 grass pea accessions from seven European countries was cultivated in Slovenia at the Agricultural Institute of Slovenia, and a set of 12 grass pea accessions from the Serbian gene bank was grown in Serbia at the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops. The TI activity varied considerably among the grass pea accessions studied, with values ranging from 26.7 to 90.3 TUI/mg. To further evaluate the effects of environmental conditions on TI activity, eight grass pea accessions originating from Serbia were grown in both Slovenia and Serbia. The TI activity of the accessions grown in Slovenia ranged from 26.7 to 81.0 TUI/mg, while the activity of the accessions grown in Serbia ranged from 40.3 to 57.0 TUI/mg. The correlation of TI activity between grass pea accessions grown in Slovenia and those grown in Serbia was 0.39, with genotype diversity being the largest contributor (55.9%). This study provides a valuable insight into the variability of TI activity in grass pea and shows the possible influence of environmental conditions on this trait. However, since the data are only from a one-year field trial, further studies are needed to fully evaluate the influence of different environmental factors on TI activity.
