Abstract

Okra variety, A.E. 22. resistant to leafhopper contains more of total chlorophyll. xanthophyll and carotene than the highly susceptible (Pusa Sawani) and susceptible (F) varieties. Leafhopper feeding has further decreased the content of the pigments in all the varieties. The decrease was much more in the F, hybrid than the resis- tant and susceptible parents.
