dc.description.abstractPresent study was carried out with the objective to develop efficient protocol for establishment of callus culture derived from hypocotyl explant, to evaluate the callogenic response of chickpea genotypes against different concentrations of culture filtrate of Ascochyta rabiei and biochemical characterization of calli showing resistance to culture filtrate. Among different media used for callus induction, MS medium supplemented with IAA (2.5 mg/l) & BAP (0.5 mg/l) [C4] gave maximum callus induction (100 %), also dark green and fragile callus. Callogenic development was more in resistant [E100Y(m)] and moderately resistant (Gaurav) genotypes as compared to susceptible genotypes Pb-7 and L550, when exposed to different concentrations of A. rabiei culture filtrate. Addition of 20 % concentration of culture filtrate in callus induction medium proved to be lethal for most of chickpea genotypes calli. Therefore, sub lethal concentrations up to of 15 % can be used for in vitro screening for resistant calli. Increase in concentrations of culture filtrate resulted in decrease of fresh as well as dry weight of calli derived from all genotypes. Total soluble sugars and reducing sugars were higher in calli of resistant [E100y (m)] and moderately resistant (Gaurav) genotypes as compared to susceptible genotypes (Pb-7, L 550). Level of phenols, flavanols and soluble proteins were also higher in the calli of all genotypes with increased in concentrations of culture filtrate. Activities of all the three enzymes viz. polyhenol oxidase, peroxidase and catalase increased in response to increase in concentrations of culture filtrate. But activities of polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase were higher in moderately resistant and resistant genotypes while catalase activity was higher in susceptible genotypes.en_US
