| Résumé : |
The sorghum improvement program comprises five disciplines: agronomy, grain quality, plant pathology and breeding. Plant pathology research emphasizes the seedling disease complex, ergot resistance breeding and root and stalik roots. Entomological research is aimed at developing an IPM system for stem borers and involves the use of host-plant resistance and insecticides. The bredding program is aimed at producing lines with increased malting quality and resistance to stem borers and aphids. The majority of accessions in the germplasm bank, comprising 3000 genotypes, have been evaluated for stem borer resistance. |
