Description
Summary:The present study was carried out in a field trial at the Nuclear Institute for Agriculture and Biology (NIAB),Faisalabad, to evaluate the susceptibility of ten advanced Kabuli genotypes and a check variety to chickpea pod borer (CPB),Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) during the year 2007. Genotypes CH 73/02, CH 76/02 and CC 121/00were recorded as the most resistant against this insect pest. CH 72/02, CH 77/02 and CH 80/02 showed moderate resistanceand CH 79/02, B 17/03, CH 65/02 and CH 60/02 the least resistance. CH 73/02 was highly resistant genotype showing thelowest pod damage (8.2%), decrease in damage (39.2%) and increase in grain yield (77.8%) over the check. The genotype,CH 60/02, was the least resistant showing 15.8% pod damage, 17.0% increased in damage and 53.3% decreased in yield overthe check CM 2000. Results revealed that none of the genotype, was completely resistant against this pest, however, thegenotypes which showed the high and moderate resistance and better yield as compared to the check had the valuableresistance attributes against CPB as in Kabuli type chickpea.
