Abstract
Estimation of total phenols at the stem bases in genetically related rice v arieties in relation to the gall midge infestation revealed the role of phe nols in expression of plant resistance involving hypersensitive reaction ag ainst the insect conferred by the gene Gm2. However, their role in other ge netically diverse rice varieties with gall midge resistance was not clear.
