Abstract: Sorghum (Sorghum bicolour Linn. Moench) popularly known as Jowar, is the major cereal consumed in India and ranks fifth after wheat, rice, maize and pearl millet. A total of 35 sorghum genotypes were screened for their reaction against grain mold under field condition during 2018-19. Out of 35 genotypes screened, none of the genotype showed highly resistant reaction (Grade-1), 11 genotypes showed resistant reaction (Grade 2 and 3), 18 genotypes showed moderately resistant reaction (Grade 4 and 5), six genotypes showed susceptible reaction (Grade 6 and 7) and none of the genotypes showed highly susceptible reaction (Grade 8 and 9).
