The transgenic plants suffered significantly lower leaf damage as compared to the non-transgenic plants. The larval survival and weight gained by H. armigera larvae after 5 days was significantly reduced on transgenic lines as compared to that on non-transgenic chickpeas during October and November plantings 2011-12 and 2012-13. The transgenic lines BS5A.2(T2) 19-1P2 and BS5A.2(T2) 19-2P1 exhibited significantly lower leaf damage rating, larval survival and mean larval weight under laboratory conditions. In glasshouse conditions, BS5A.1(T2) 18-1P1 suffered significantly lower leaf damage and mean larval weight was also reduced but the larval survival of H. armigera was significantly reduced on BS5A.2(T2) 19-2P1. Significant differences in grain yield were observed between transgenic and non-transgenic plants infested with H. armigera. BS5A.2(T2) 19-2P1 had the highest dry matter weight, pod weight, seed weight and number of seeds formed as compared to the other transgenic and non-transgenic chickpea lines under infested and un-infested conditions... date: 2015 date_type: submitted pages: 222 institution: Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University department: Department of Entomology thesis_type: phd related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Characterization+of+Cry+IIa+Transgenic+Chickpea+Lines+and+their+Interaction+with+Natural+Enemies+of+Helicoverpa+armigera%28Hubner%29&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=any&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&bt related_url_type: pub citation: Shaila, O (2015) Characterization of Cry IIa Transgenic Chickpea Lines and their Interaction with Natural Enemies of Helicoverpa armigera(Hubner).
