Abstract

                                Incidence of termites as pest in the Italian millet (Setaria italica Beauv.) has not been reported in the past. The standing crops of certain valuable varieties resistant to rust have been found to be severely damaged by termites in the Millets Breeding Station. Since susceptibility to termites in these valuable cultures interfered with the breeding programme on the improvement of this crop, anatomical studies as an initial step towards the understanding of the resistance in the resistant varieties were made and the same are reported in this article.
