Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to study the susceptibility of pink borer, Sesamia inferens Walker on different wheat lines during 1992-93 at Wheat Research Center, Dinajpur, Bangladesh. The susceptibility of pink borer was recorded only at heading or panicle initiation stage of wheat crops. The lines BAW-743 and BAW 769 of the 28 tested lines were found promising to pink borer tolerance and yield.
