Abstract

A laboratory experiment was conducted to determine the resistance of 15 chickpea genotypes against pulse beetle, Callosobruchus chinensis (L.) under laboratory conditions. The mean per cent weight loss ranged from 62.48 to 33.92 per cent. The genotype PBG 5 (33.92%) recorded minimum per cent weight loss followed by GNG 469 (34.16%) and these were identified as tolerant genotypes. Whereas, the genotype Chaffa recorded highest per cent weight loss (62.48 %) followed by H 82-2(HC-1) (49.04%) and these were identified as susceptible. The mean per cent damage was highest in the genotype JG 11 (50.50%) and lowest in genotype JG 315 (27.75%).
