The major foliar and head diseases of sorghum are discussed in this paper. Some, especially anthracnosis, leaf blight and grain mould cause considerable economic losses. Host plant resistance is certainly the most cost effective means of controlling these diseases. With the advent of biotechnology, opportunities now exist for more accurate diagnosis of disease etiology, and most likely will facilitate breeding for resistance to these diseases
