Comparative Analysis Delineates the Transcriptional Resistance Mechanisms for Pod Borer Resistance in the Pigeonpea Wild Relative <i>Cajanus scarabaeoides</i> (L.) Thouars

Comparative Analysis Delineates the Transcriptional Resistance Mechanisms for Pod Borer Resistance in the Pigeonpea Wild Relative <i>Cajanus scarabaeoides</i> (L.) Thouars

Insect pests pose a serious threat to global food production. Pod borer (<i>Helicoverpa armigera</i> (Hübner)) is one of the most destructive pests of leguminous crops. The use of host resistance has been an effective, environmentally friendly and sustainable approach for controlling sev...
