Figure 1:
Mean comparison of Methionine contents (µg.100 mg-1) after 14th days of induction of resistance by the application of (A) salicylic acid, (B) Bion, (C) KOH, (D) Neem, (E) Dautra, (F) Garlic and by un-inoculation and inoculation with Ascochyta rabiei in cultivars C-44, Pb-91, Bittle-98. Data are means of three repeated experiments. The error bar represents the standard error of the mean according to the least significant difference test at P ≤ 0.05.
Figure 2:
Mean comparison of Isolucine contents (µg.100 mg-1) after 14th days of induction of resistance by the application of (A) salicylic acid, (B) Bion, (C) KOH, (D) Neem, (E) Dautra, (F) Garlic and by un-inoculation and inoculation with Ascochyta rabiei in cultivars C-44, Pb-91, Bittle-98. Data are means of three repeated experiments. The error bar represents the standard error of the mean according to the least significant difference test at P ≤ 0.05.
Figure 3:
Mean comparison of Leucine contents (µg.100 mg-1) after 14th days of induction of resistance by the application of (A) salicylic acid, (B) Bion, (C) KOH, (D) Neem, (E) Dautra, (F) Garlic and by un-inoculation and inoculation with Ascochyta rabiei in cultivars C-44, Pb-91, Bittle-98. Data are means of three repeated experiments. The error bar represents the standard error of the mean according to the least significant difference test at P ≤ 0.05.
Figure 4:
Mean comparison of Tyrosine contents (µg 100 mg-1) after 14th days of induction of resistance by the application of (A) salicylic acid, (B) Bion, (C) KOH, (D) Neem, (E) Dautra, (F) Garlic and by un-inoculation and inoculation with Ascochyta rabiei in cultivars C-44, Pb-91, Bittle-98. Data are means of three repeated experiments. The error bar represents the standard error of the mean according to the least significant difference test at P ≤ 0.05.
Figure 5:
Mean comparison of Phenylalanine contents (µg.100 mg-1) after 14th days of induction of resistance by the application of (A) salicylic acid, (B) Bion, (C) KOH, (D) Neem, (E) Dautra, (F) Garlic and by un-inoculation and inoculation with Ascochyta rabiei in cultivars C-44, Pb-91, Bittle-98. Data are means of three repeated experiments. The error bar represents the standard error of the mean according to the least significant difference test at P ≤ 0.05.
