Field screening of 12 genotypes of sorghum against armyworm during Rabi 2006-07 and 2007-08 showed that Nizer goti was found less susceptible to armyworm.Among different plant characters, plant height and number of internodes exhibited significant negative influence on army worm population (r=-0.288, -0.393).
