Biochemical characterisation of pearl millet genotypes was carried at pre- (45 DAS) and post-infection (57 DAS i.e. 7 days after infection) stages. Total phenol content at pre-infection stage did not show inherent resistance or susceptibility. While the total phenol content was found to be higher in susceptible genotypes at post-infection stage, qualitative analysis of phenol through high-performance thin layer chromatography showed absence of ferulic acid in resistant genotypes at pre-infection stage. Peroxidase (POX) activity was higher in susceptible genotypes at both the stages of analysis. Constitutive activity of phenylalanine ammonia lyase was higher in resistant genotype whereas induced activity was recorded higher in susceptible genotypes. Native poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis isozyme banding pattern of POX showed some inducible band(s) due to disease infection in resistant and susceptible genotypes.
