Insect Pest Problems in Sorghum and Pearl MilletInsect Pest Problems in Sorghum and Pearl Millet

Shoot fly – Atherigona soccata in sorghum and A. approximata in pearl millet. The larvae migrate to the growing point and

d d dh t

produces a deadheart.

Stem borers. Chilo partellus and Busseola fusca in sorghum and Ascigona ignefusalisin pearl millet Lar ae feed on lea es ca sein pearl millet. Larvae feed on leaves, cause deadheart and stem tunneling.

Midge – Stenodiplosis sorghicola in sorghum Larval feeding results in chaffysorghum. Larval feeding results in chaffy spikelets.

Head bugs – Calocoris angustatus and Eurystylus oldi result in tanning andEurystylus oldi result in tanning and shriveling of grain in sorghum.

Head miner, caterpillars, beetles –Heliocheilus albipunctella HelicoverpaHeliocheilus albipunctella, Helicoverpa armigera, and the chafer and blister beetles feed on rachis/grain.

Climate Change Effects on Pest Spectrum in Sorghumg

• Many insect pests will extend their geographical range to temperate regions g g p g p gwith global warming and climate change.

• The activity of natural enemies of insects will decrease under high temperatures and dry conditions.

• Losses due to stem borers, aphids, and mites will increase under extended

fperiods of drought.

• Lower foliar nitrogen due to high CO2increases food consumption by insects.

• Expression of resistance to shoot fly, stem borers, midge, and aphids will decrease under high temperatures in d ght tdrought stress.

HPR in Integrated Pest Management

• Shoot fly-resistant varieties + seed treatment with seed t eat e t w tthaimethoxam + sprays of deltamethrin are very effective for shoot fly controleffective for shoot fly control.

• IPM resulted in yield increase by 3 – 5 times over the untreated control plots.

• This technology has been adopted on a large-scale in Maharashtra under HOPEMaharashtra under HOPE project funded by BMGF.

HPR to Insect in Sorghum IPMConclusionsConclusions

• HPR is, and will continue to be an important component of IPM for sustainable crop production.

• Both conventional and biotechnological approaches should be used to increase the levels and pyramid the resistance genes for insect pests and diseases.

• There is great potential to introgress insect resistance genes from wild relatives through wide hybridization and gene cloning.and gene cloning.

• Need to combine HPR with other components of pest management and assess their usefulness for sustainable management and assess their usefulness for sustainable crop production.
