(Hemiptera: Miridae) is the key pest of grain sorghum in this region. A range of sorghum genotypes were evaluated for resistance to sorghum head bug at Sotuba (Mali) and Kamboinse (Burkina Faso). Genotypes CSM 388, IS 14332, Malisor 84-7, Sakoika. S 29 and Kamboinse local were resistant to head bugs. both under natural and headcage screening. Head bug resistant genotypes had a lower percentage of head bug damaged grain. The food quality of head bug damaged grain was very poor and unacceptable. Cultivar non-preference was identified as a component of resistance to head bugs. and CSM 388 was nonpreferred compared to E 35-1. Panicle compactness was positively associated with head bug numbers and grain damage. However, genotypes with loose panicles were also susceptible to bugs. Long glumes (>5 mm), days to glume opening (>20 days after anthesis), >50% covering of the grain by the glumes, and grain hardness contribute towards resistance to Eurystylus immaculatus. This information will be useful for developing a programme to breed for resistance to this insect in West Africa.","1994","published",,"Insect Science and its Application","15","1","International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology, Nairobi, Kenya",,"39-48",,,,,,,,,,,"TRUE",,"0191-9040",,,,,,"",,"http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=allintitle%3A+Sources+and+Mechanisms+of+Resistance+to+Sorghum+Head+Bug%2C+Eurystylus-Immaculatus+Odh+in+West-Africa&btnG=Search&as_sdt=0%2C5&as_ylo=&as_vis=0","author",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
