%T Validation of shoot fly resistance introgression lines using SNP markers in sorghum
%U http://oar.icrisat.org/11783/
%X Shoot fly is a major pest in sorghum production globally. Shoot fly management using insecticides is expensive and environmentally un-safe. Therefore, host plant resistance is exploited to develop shoot fly resistance (SFR) lines including transfer of shoot fly resistance  QTLs using marker assisted backcrossing. QTLs controlling SFR component traits, glossiness, trichome density, ovipositional non-preference were used for introgression in this study
