%X Laboratory and field methodologies for screening for resistance against Chilo partellus on sorghum and maize are reviewed in relation to the insect biology, plant phenology and insect-plant interaction. The value of field and laboratory techniques in achieving the goal to produce resistance varieties and hybrids is discussed. Recommendations for future work are made
