Abstract
The phytotoxic effect of 6 insecticides applied to 6 varieties of grain sorghum was determined by visual ratings and seed yield in pounds per acre. Little or no leaf damage and no yield loss resulted from application of insecticides to varieties P-846. NK222, RSG71, or RS625. Parathion and methyl parathion (0.5 and 1.0 AI/acre) caused greatest visual leaf damage and resulted in significant yield losses when applied to TE77. Methyl parathion (1.0 AI/acre) also reduced yields of RS626, Carbaryl, diazinon, carbophenothion, and ethion did not reduce grain yields.
