Maize is most widely distributed crop and ranks third in world crop production while I India. It is regarded as an important food grain, feed and fodder crop. More than sixty species of insects have been reported to attack maize crop during its different stages of Because of higher grain yield losses, research efforts are being initiated to develop resistant hybrids at Agricultural Research Station (Maize), Amberpet, Hyderabad, since it is most efficient and permanent means of controlling the pest. Screening of all the elite germplasm was undertaken in the present investigation as a first phase of resistance breeding programme and to identify the highly resistant donor parents under natural conditions for their future use in hybrid breeding programme.
