Abstract
The present investigation was carried out on wilt (Fusarium udum Butler) resistant (ICPL 87119, BDN 2) and susceptible (T15-15 & ICP 2376) genotypes of pigeon pea at 0 day after infection (DAI), 1 DAI, 4 DAI and 7 DAI in infected and non-infected tissues to identify some biochemical markers like phenol and enzymes related to phenol metabolism viz., PPO and PAL for wilt resistant. The phenol content increased 1 DAI to 4 DAI in leaves and root tissue and decreased later in leaves tissue only during infection of wilt pathogen. The phenylalanine ammonium lyase (PAL) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity were highest in resistant genotypes at all the stages. The root tissues recorded 5 to 10 fold higher PAL activity than leaves in all genotypes.
