Helicoverpa: The least larval count of Helicoverpa (1.238) was observed in the genotype  namely PE-25-10,however, it was not significantly differ from the genotypes  PE-25-09,PE-25-16 and PE-25-20. The highest Helicoverpa larval count (1.631) was found in the genotype namelyPE-25-12 but it was not significantly differ from PE-25-08 and PE-25-20.

Maruca: The significantly least larval count of Maruca (1.125) was observed in  the genotypes PE-25-09, PE-25-16 and PE-25-20 and they were Followed by the genotype PE-25-08.. The  highest Maruca larval  count  (1.412) was found in the genotype PE-25-12 but it was not significantly differ from the genotypes PE-25-15.

Pod Damage Percent due to Helicoverpa: The significantly highest pod damage percent due to pod borer (30.160) was observed in the genotype PE-25-12 and it was followed by the genotype PE-25-18. The least pod damage percent (19.666) was recorded in the genotype PE-25-20 but it was not significantly differ from the genotypes PE-25-09,PE-25-10 and PE-25-16. 

Pod Damage Percent due to Maruca: The highest pod damage percent due to pod borer (24.071) was observed in the genotype PE-25-12 and it was it was statistically at par with the genotypes PE-25-13,PE-25-15 and PE-25-18. The least pod damage percent (15.172)was recorded in the genotype namely PE-25-20,however,it was not significantly differ from the genotypes PE-25-09,PE-25-14 and PE-25-16.

Pod flies: The least pod fly maggot/pupa count (2.627) was observed in the genotype PE-25-20 and it was statistically at par with the genotypes PE-25-08,PE-25-13 and PE-25-14. The highest maggot count of pod fly (3.826) was observed in the genotype PE-25-18 and it was not significantly  differ from the genotypes PE-25-11,PE-25-15,PE-25-19 and PE-25-21. The least pod damage percent due to pod fly (16.041) was found in the genotype PE-25-14,however, it was not significantly differ from the genotypes PE-25-13,PE-25-16 and PE-25-20. The  significantly highest pod damage percent (24.071) was observed in  PE-25-18 and it was  statistically at par with the genotypes PE-25-10,PE-25-11,PE-25-19 and PE-25-20.    

The genotypes namely PE-25-09,PE-25-16 and PE-25-20 were consider as tolerant while genotypes namely PE-25-12,PE-25-15and PE-25-18 were found susceptible  against pod borers.

The genotypes namely PE-25-08,PE-25-13 and PE-25-20 were found to be tolerant where as the genotypes namely PE-25-18,E-25-19 and PE-25-21 were found susceptible against podfly attack.
