| Abstract | Helicoverpa armigera, a highly polyphagous pest, has a broad host spectrum, causes significant levels of yield loss in many agriculturally important crops. Serine primarily responsible for most of the proteolytic activity in the larval gut of lepidopteron insects. Neonate larvae were reared on artificial diet and chickpea seeds smeared with Subabul Trypsin Inhibitor. Larvae fed with artificial diet showed reduction in larval weight up to 21% (HSTI) and 43% (LSTI). However, larvae fed on seeds showed significant reduction in weight, 52.4% (HSTI) and 60.3% (LSTI), suggesting that the diet also plays a vital role on the effectiveness of the inhibitors on larval growth and development. HSTI and LSTI inhibited the gut proteinases from larvae fed on artificial diet significantly (41.40% and 64.36%) compared to the gut proteinases (27.80% and 38.90%) from larvae fed on chickpea seeds. Seeds smeared with 10,000 TIU resulted in complete mortality of larvae while there was no mortality observed in artificial diet. The results reveal that LSTI is a stronger inhibitor of insect gut proteinases and for larvae fed with poor nutrition in the natural ecosystems, low level expression of inhibitor would be enough to affect the growth and development. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
