    Not AvailableBanana stem weevil (Odoiporus longicollis) has been a serious threat to banana production in Asian countries. Musa spp. has gained significance as it provides food security for millions of people. Screening of 316 Musa accessions for their susceptibility to banana stem weevil revealed that all the screened genotypes (316 Musa accessions), belongs to different genomic groups (AA: 26, AAA: 28, AB: 23, AAB: 101, ABB: 102, ABBB: 8, BB: 24, Rhodochiamys: 4) were susceptible. The susceptibility is categorized as follows: less, moderate, highly and most highly susceptible, and are discussed in detail. The present study indicated that 24 very less and 44 less susceptible Musa accessions shall be recommended and popularized among the banana growing farmers after characterization of other parameters like crop duration, yield and market value.Not Availabl
