Pulses are precious commodities used around the globe in variety of cuisines. They are rich source of plant proteins and contribute in improving nutrition security. They are now gaining attention in value added food market as functional ingredients and in nutraceutical industries [1]. Pulses are annual and seasonal crops that can be stored for several months. However, these are at high risk of damage due to post harvest losses which can be up to 25-50% [2]. These losses are linked to insufficient and poor storage facilities, lack of knowledge of advanced technology in post harvest pulse management and harsh climatic conditions particularly in developing countries like India [3]. During storage, pulse beetles or bruchids attack the pulse seeds and Callosobruchus chinensis Linn and Callosobruchus maculatus Fab are common bruchid species. These bruchids causes about 5-10% losses during storage [2]. These losses vary widely in different climatic conditions, pulse varieties, geographical locations and processing and storage techniques.
