“…Talekar and Lin (1992) ascertained accessions V2709 and V2802 were highly resistant to both C. chinensis and C. maculatus, while the cultivated accessions V1128 and V2817 were also resistant (Somta et al 2008) and moderately resistant in PLM 156 and V 1123 for both bruchid species (Dixit 2015). Lower pod borer complex damage was observed in CGG 08-007 and CGG 08-028 (Soundararajan et al 2010), and resistance in TC1966, V2709, V2802, V1128, and V2817 was attributed due to presence of the biochemical compounds in the seeds (Talekar and Lin 1992;Somta et al 2008).…”

“…Genotype PLU 648 was found resistant to M. javanica. Low pod borer complex damage was observed in CBG 08-011 and PLU 54 (Soundararajan et al 2010). In field pea (P. sativum), accessions 32,454 (17%) and 235,002 (33%) had consistently low percent seed damage; incorporation of such promising accessions into pea breeding programs may lead to the exploitation of varieties with enhanced resistance against pea weevil, B. pisorum L., in Ethiopia (Teshome et al 2015).…”

“…Pubescence on the leaf tip is linked with reduced defoliation by H. zea (Boddie), S. exigua (Hubner), and Pseudoplusia includens (Walker) in soybean (Hulburt et al 2004). The length of the peduncle and angle of pods influence expression of resistance to M. vitrata in cowpea (Soundararajan et al 2013). Oghiakhe et al (1991) reported that defoliated cultivars suffered lower damage than the undefoliated ones, and the cultivars TVu 946 and TVu 4557 having attributes of high length of the peduncle and angle of pods (Singh 1978) erect and profuse flowering in TVu 946 (Oghiakhe et al 1992a, b) for resistance M. vitrata in cowpea.…”

Major food legumes including chickpea, pigeon pea, cowpea, field pea, lentil, faba bean, black gram, green gram, and Phaseolus beans play a vital role in food, nutritional security, and sustainable crop production. Several insect pests damage grain legumes, of which Helicoverpa armigera; Maruca vitrata; Etiella zinckenella; Spodoptera litura and S. exigua; Melanagromyza obtusa; Ophiomyia phaseoli; Aphis craccivora and Bemisia tabaci; Empoasca spp., Megalurothrips dorsalis, and Caliothrips indicus; Mylabris spp.; and Callosobruchus chinensis crusade extensive losses. Appreciable progress has been made in formulating techniques to evaluate germplasm, mapping populations, and genetically modified crops for resistance to insect pests under field and greenhouse conditions. No-choice and dual-choice cage screening techniques, detached leaf assay, and diet incorporation assays have been standardized to screen for resistance to major insect pests in grain legumes. However, some of these techniques cannot be used to screen against stem flies, pod fly, leafhoppers, thrips, and aphids. There is a need to develop methods for mass multiplication of aforesaid insects to undertake precise phenotyping for resistance to these insects. There is a necessity to identify lines with different resistance mechanisms/components of resistance for gene pyramiding to explicate cultivars with the stable source of resistance to insect pests. Prominent levels of resistance to the pod borers have been found in the wild accessions of chickpea, 132 pigeon pea, and cowpea, which can be exploited to introgress genes to heighten the levels and diversify the basis of resistance to insect pests to build host plant resistance a viable component of pest management in grain legumes for sustainable crop production.

“…The development of resistant varieties in pulse crops is an important component of integrated pest management strategies. Although insecticides are effective against sucking pests, defoliator and pod borer complexes, the development of insecticide resistance, short-term crop residues and environmental hazards require alternative eco-safe management methods (Soundararajan et al, 2013). Host plant resistance can play a crucial role in pest control in grain legumes, and resistance to insect pests should be one of the key requirements for the development and release of new crop cultivars to ensure a long cultivar life and cost-effective output (Sharma and Crouch, 2004).…”

Direct damage due to insect pests is one of the major causes limiting the yield potential of blackgram (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) in Nepal. A total of 17 blackgram genotypes were screened for resistance to major insect pests, including aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch.), whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn.), hairy caterpillar (Spilosoma obliqua Walker) and pod borer (Helicoverpa armigera Hubner) in National Maize Research Program, Rampur, Chitwan during summer season of 2018 and 2019. The design of the experiment was randomized complete block having three replications. Genotypes were sown on first week of August in a unit plot size of 4 rows of 2 m long with 40 cm row to row spacing and continue plant to plant spacing was maintained and net harvested plot was 3.2 square meters. The recommended dose of fertilizer was 20:40:20 N:P2O5:K2O kg/ha and seed rate 25 kg/ha. The package of agronomic practices was followed as per national recommendation. Data on insects were collected by counting the number of insects per plant. The yield and yield components were recorded at harvest. All screened genotypes differed significantly (p<0.05) for insect population, yield and yield components. From two years field data, three genotypes BLG0069-1, BLG0036-1 and BLG0079-1 had lower number of above mentioned insect populations, exhibited more resistant in both years and produced higher grain yield (~1.5 t/ha) than other genotypes. These genotypes might be useful for the development of major insect pest tolerant high yielding blackgram variety in subtropical region of Nepal.

“…Increasing incidence and epiphytotic conditions of MYMV depend upon a combination of factors such as high population of viruliferous whitefly, buildup of inoculum potential in some hosts and wide range of favorable environmental conditions (Shad et al, 2006). However, it has also been reported that certain morphological leaf characteristics and foliar pubescence may affect insect feeding preference on plant genotypes (Taggar and Gill, 2012;Soundararajan et al, 2013;Tamang et al, 2017).…”
