Abstract
Tissue cultures were used as the host-parasite systems to study the total phenolics in relation to downy mildew infection in pearl millet. Total phenolics increased due to infection bySclerospora graminicola. As the age of the callus tissue increased, an increase in total phenolics was observed in both susceptible and resistant cultivars. The possibility of using a dual culture to study the biochemical changes occurring in the host-parasite interactions of an obligate parasite is discussed.
