Inheritance of Resistance to Sorghum Shoot Fly, Atherigona soccata in Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench
Sorghum production is affected by a wide array of biotic constraints, of which sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata is the most important pest, which severely damages the sorghum crop during the seedling stage. Host plant resistance is one of the major components to control sorghum shoot fly, A. soccata. To understand the nature of gene action for inheritance of shoot fly resistance, we evalua...
متن کاملMultiple-resistance to sorghum shoot fly, spotted stemborer and sugarcane aphid in sorghum
Sorghum is one of the most important cereal crops in the semi-arid tropics. Several insect pests damage it. The possibility of identifying genotypes with multiple resistance to these pests and transferring the relevant genes into high-yielding varieties and hybrids has been considered as an attractive approach to reducing yield losses. A set of 12 cytoplasmic male-sterile and maintainer lines, ...
متن کاملOxidative Enzyme Changes in Sorghum Infested by Shoot Fly
This research investigated the role of oxidative enzymes in the defense response of sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench (Poales: Poaceae), to the sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata Rondani (Diptera: Muscidae). Changes in polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activity and total protein content were observed in resistant and susceptible sorghum genotypes in response to A. soccata feeding. Resista...
متن کاملGenetic Relationships between Indicator Traits for Fly Strike Resistance and Production Traits in Merino Sheep
Fly strike in sheep has been estimated to cost the Australian sheep industry approximately $280m dollars annually (Sackett et al. 2006) as a result of sheep losses, cost of treatment and loss of wool and carcase production and value. Historically Australian sheep producers have surgically removed skin from around the tail (mulesing) to help avoid fly strike. Although this has proved highly succ...
متن کاملScreening for Resistance to Sorghum Shoot Bug and Spider Mites
Sorghum is one of the most important cereals in the semi-arid tropics. Nearly 150 insect specieshave been reported to damage the crop worldwide, causing an estimated loss of over US$ 1 000million annually. Of these, shoot fly, stem borers, greenbug, sugarcane aphid, shoot bug, spidermites, armyworms, midge, head bug, and head caterpillars are the major pests. Plant resistance to...
