For the most part, this resistance was located in the primary gene pools of grain legumes via conventional laboratory, greenhouse, and field screening methods. The use of analytical techniques (i.e., capillary gas chromatography) to characterize plant chemicals that mediate the host selection behavior of pest insects offers promise as a new, more rapid way to differentiate between insect-resistant and susceptible plant material. Examples of research achievements in mechanisms of resistance and host-plant resistance within the context of integrated control programs are discussed. Accelerating the development and subsequent releases of insect-resistant cultivars to pulse farmers requires more involvement from interdisciplinary teams of plant breeders, entomologists, plant pathologists, plant chemists, molecular biologists, and other scientists date: 1994 date_type: published publication: Euphytica volume: 73 number: 1-2 publisher: Springer pagerange: 41-50 refereed: TRUE issn: 0014-2336 official_url: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF00027180 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Research+achievements+in+plant+resistance+to+insect+pests+of+cool+season+food+legumes&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_type: pub citation: Clement, S L and El-Din Sharaf El-Din, N and Weigand, S and Lateef, S S (1994) Research achievements in plant resistance to insect pests of cool season food legumes.
