| Abstract | Sorghum is the fifth most important cereal and suffers heavy damage from rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae, reducing their quality and quantity. Studies were conducted to identify the association of grain characteristics and their relationship with resistance to the rice weevil. The paper discusses the associations between sorghum seed parameters, insect oviposition, development data and grain weight loss. The important grain characteristics, viz., 100 seed weight was significantly positively correlated with grain hardness (0.55**) and median development period (0.47**) and significantly negatively correlated with grain weight loss (- 0.43*). However, the grain hardness was significantly negatively correlated with oviposition (- 0.49**), adult emergence (- 0.75**) and grain weight loss (- 0.82**) and was significantly positively correlated with median development period (0.85**). The pest parameter, viz., oviposition was significantly positively correlated with adult emergence (0.43*) and grain weight loss (0.55**). Two principal components (PCs) were extracted explaining cumulative variation of 76.2 %. Seed weight, grain hardness, oviposition, adult emergence, median development period and grain weight loss were the reliable variables for characterization of resistance to S. oryzae. The sorghum lines EC 24, EC 22, PEC 8, PEC 7, EP 78, EP 57, AKR 354 were classified as resistant to S. oryzae and these could be used in future breeding program as resistant sources. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
