“…silvestris (Reddy and Singh 1993 ) have been identifi ed as potential sources of MYMV resistance, and TC 1966 of V. radiata var. sublobata was identifi ed to carry bruchid tolerance gene (Tomooka et al 1992 ). In cowpea, the most important pests are the post fl owering insect-pests including legume pod borers and pod-sucking bugs.…”

The genus Vigna comprises more than 200 species of which 7 are of tremendous agronomic importance. These are grown mainly in the warm temperate and tropical regions of the world. Valued for their grains with high and easily digestible proteins, these crops are also known as forage, green manure, and cover crops. Due to a short life cycle, these are suitable as catch crops and also fi t well in intercropping, mixed or relay cropping. For genetic improvement of cultivated vignas, mainly cultivated germplasm and exotic lines have been used so far. However, despite development of several improved cultivars in different Vigna crops, biotic and abiotic stresses still remain the major constraints in realizing their true yield potential. While plethora of genes conferring resistance/tolerance to these stresses have already been transferred from cultivated germplasm, wild genetic resources offer additional sources of useful alien variation which can be incorporated in cultivated Vigna through alien gene transfer. With better understanding of the processes behind pollen germination and pollen tube growth, fertilization, embryo and endosperm development and inheritance pattern, strategies have been developed to avoid pre-and post-fertilization barriers in successful distant hybridization leading to alien gene transfer. These include making reciprocal crosses, repeated pollination, hormonal treatment of fl ower buds, polyploidization, use of bridge species and most importantly, embryo rescue which have increased success rate of alien gene transfer in Vigna through sexual hybridization. Nevertheless, alien gene transfer through genetic transformation and use of molecular breeding tools still lag behind in Vigna and therefore need special attention. The signifi cant achievements made in different Vigna species in alien gene transfer and their utilization have been discussed in this chapter.

“…In addition, varieties carrying genes for insect pest resistances transferred from related wild species may be low yielders with inferior quality. Wild species have several defects not only in terms of agronomic performance, but also in terms of food safety [15,16,39,57]. It may be particularly difficult to breed for pest resistance when the mechanism of resistance in itself reduces crop quality.…”

“…Current developments in the use of biotechnological tools against storage insect pests in food legumes include: identification of sources of resistance [10,[15][16][17]24,39,57,58], locating the resistance genes in cultivated and wild species, developing and mapping genetic markers [10,15,17,58] and cloning genes, few as they may be [17,25,59]. Attempts for genetic transformation started by the pioneering works of Shade et al [60] in field pea have been continued in a number of pulses like haricot bean, field pea, chickpea, groundnut, lentil, pigeon pea, cow pea and faba bean [19,29,51,55].…”

Breeding Food Legumes for Resistance to Storage Insect Pests: Potential and Limitations

Storage insect pests cause significant losses of food legumes particularly in the Tropics and the Sub-tropics. The most important species of storage insect pests of food legumes include Callosobruchus chinensis, C. maculatus, C. analis, Acanthoscelides obtectus, Bruchus incarnatus, B. rufimanus, B. dentipes, B. quinqueguttatus, B. emarginatus, B. ervi, B. lentis and B. pisorum. Effective post-harvest insect pest control measures should constitute part of the overall crop husbandry practices for preserving the quality of produce. Storage insect pests are commonly controlled using chemical insecticides which, however, bear many drawbacks related to high cost, environmental pollution and food safety risks. Breeding legume crops to improve their resistance against storage insect pests, although having technical limitations, is the best way of overcoming these disadvantages in an environment-friendly manner. In this paper, we present the findings of our extensive reviews on the potential of breeding resistant varieties of food OPEN ACCESS Sustainability 2011, 3 1400 legumes against storage insect pests along with the major technical limitations one would likely encounter and the prospective ways of tackling them.

“…Results identiÞed one accession of wild black gram (Plu-416) with complete resistance to all bruchid species tested, and one accession of wild mungbean (TC1966 in the original paper, called JP107787 in the current study) with complete resistance to four bruchid species, but not C. analis. Hence, mungbean breeding for bruchid resistance using wild mungbean (Kitamura et al 1988, Tomooka et al 1992 and wild black gram (Dongre et al 1996) has been conducted. Resistant lines using wild species have not yet resulted in commercial lines being released to farmers.…”

Resistance of wild and cultivated rice bean (Vigna umbellata [Thunberg] Ohwi and Ohashi) to three bruchid species, Callosobruchus chinensis L., Callosobruchus maculatus F., and Callosobruchus analis F., was evaluated. All but three accessions of cultivated, and all wild rice bean accessions tested, exhibited complete resistance to all three bruchid species. Rice bean seeds with seed coat removed also showed complete resistance to the three bruchid species. Results indicate that physical attributes and/or chemical(s) present in the seed coat of rice bean are not the main factors responsible for resistance. Feeding tests were performed by using artificial beans prepared with varying proportions of rice bean (resistant) and azuki bean (susceptible) flour. Number of bruchid adults that emerged decreased, and larval developmental period (days) was extended, when artificial beans with an increasing proportion of rice bean flour were used. These tests revealed that a chemical compound(s) contained in the cotyledon of rice bean has an inhibitory effect on the growth of these bruchid species. The results also indicate that the chemical(s) in rice bean cotyledon is most effective against C. maculatus.
