maculatus. It was demonstrated that the HCI extract of blackgram contained some
growth inhibitor which could be further exploited for incorporating resistance
in pulses like mungbean against C. chinensis. [AS]

The seeds of mungbean [Vigna radiata (Linn.) Wilczek] could be protected
against Callosobruchus maculatus (Fabr.) for 5-6 months by treating them with
the oils of sal (Shorea robusta), cotton seed and rice bran at 0.3 and 0.5%
concentrations (W/W). The rancidity measured in terms of alcoholic acidity and
FFA did not increase significantly in treated seeds, nor was their viability
affected. [AS]

Field and laboratory experiments with mungbean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek,
led to the identification of two sources with different modes of resistance to
Callosobruchus chinensis (L.). Mungbean accession 2011 was least damaged when
the insect infestation occurred in the field, whereas in the laboratory
experiment with seeds, accession 2164 was highly resistant. Hairiness of the
pod in the case of the former and seed coat hardness or possibly antibiosis in
the latter are believed to be the causes of the resistance. [AS]

Studies under fluctuating laboratory conditions indicated that the grain
damage and loss of germination due to Callosobruchus maculatus Fab. was
significantly higher in mungbean varieties (ML 5, G 65 and Shining Moong No.1)
than that in blackgram varieties (T 9 and Mash 1-1). The range of damaged
grains varied from 42.53 to 57.77% and 7.97 to 10.20% in mungbean and blackgram
varieties, respectively, while the loss in germination varied from 47.53 to
70.60% in mungbean varieties and 14.13 to 19.76% in blackgram varieties after
five months of storage. [AS]

The qualitative losses in mangbean PS 16 variety caused by Callosobruchus
chinensis L. and Callosobruchus maculatus F. during storege were evaluated. The
protein content of the mungbean variety PS 16 ranged from 22.15 to 32.34% in
the control, 22.15 to 47.14% in the seeds infested by C. chinensis and 22.15 to
