Abstract

Investigation on development of peroxidase activity at two intervals were carried out in two cowpea cultivars viz. Pusa Barsati (susceptible) and C 152 (resistant) inoculated with root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita. Quantitative increase in peroxidase activity was observed at both the intervals. On the basis of electrophoretic analysis, it was found that new isozyme of peroxidase was synthesized during post infection period.
