Abstract
An “In vivo screening of okra germplasm/accessions against sucking pests” was undertaken at Dhadhagoundanpatti village (Alanganallur block) a bhendi growing belt of Madurai district. For this study, thirty okra accessions were screened against sucking pests’ viz., aphids, jassids, and whiteflies. The results showed that accessions IC 15027 showed resistant level, IC 90202, IC 90203, IC 90213, IC 90214 found to be moderately resistant to sucking pests.
