Abstract

Twenty genotypes of short duration pigeonpea of were grown at Pulses Section, Department of plant breeding and genetics during kharif 2014-15 in randomized block design with three replication to study the impact of biochemical constitution on incidence of Maruca in pigeonpea. The data were recorded on different biochemical attributes. The results indicated that the lower total sugar content, protein content higher total phenol contents in pods appeared good indicator of resistance to Maruca vitrata.
