Lentil is an important pulses crop but it's short stature and slow growth rate make it vulnerable to weed competition, limiting crop productivity. There is need to identify herbicide tolerant genotypes and their tolerance mechanism. The present investigation was conducted to understand the effect of imazethapyr (IM) treatment on accumulation of methylglyoxal (MG) and its detoxification mechanism in IM-tolerant (LL1397 and LL1612) susceptible (FLIP2004-7L and PL07) genotypes sown under control (weed free), weedy check (weeds were growing with crop) and sprayed with imazethapyr. The enzymes of glyoxalase pathway (glyoxalase I, II and III) and non glyoxalase pathway (methylglyoxal reductase), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutathione content, gamma-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) were estimated in lentil genotypes at different days after spray. Higher activities of glyoxalase I, II and III and MGR along with the increased glutathione content (GSH) content in LL1397 and LL1612 under IM treatment as compared to FLIP2004-7L and PL07 might be responsible for lowering MG accumulation and increasing lactate content, which is end product of these pathways. Enhanced LDH activity in LL1397 and LL1612 might be responsible for energy production via TCA cycle that might be responsible for growth and recovery of tolerant genotypes after IM treatment. Higher γ-GCS activity in tolerant genotypes led to increased glutathione content required for glyoxalase pathway. However, decreased activities of glyoxalase enzymes and MGR in susceptible genotypes result in MG accumulation which limit plant growth. This is the first ever study elucidating the role of MG detoxification pathway conferring IM tolerance in lentil.
