yield losses in pearl millet is reviewed. The possibilities of controlling
diseases, insect pests, weeds and grain-eating birds by breeding cultivars
with durable resistance are discussed. In future breeding research
in this crop, areas needing to be emphasized include: evaluation of the
nature and inheritance of disease resistance; development of strategies
to increase the durability of resistance to diseases; investigations into
the possibility of using complex multiple barriers to disease pathogens;
additional survey work and the development and use of effective
screening techniques for insect pests; evaluation of integrated control
strategies against insects; development and use of screening techniques
to identify and develop cultivars resistant to witchweed; and investigation
of cultural practices and breeding techniques to control shibra in
Sahelian Africa.","1983","published",,"International Pearl Millet Improvement","31","4",,,"136-158",,"FAO/IITA Expert Consultation on Durable Resistance Breeding,","Ibadan, Nigeria","23-29 October 1982","other",,,,,,"TRUE",,,,,,,,"",,"http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Breeding+for+disease+and+pest+resistance+in+pearl+millet&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts=5&hl=en","author",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
