Abstract

A total of 8 proso millet varieties including check were evaluated for resistance to banded blight at Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram during kharif, 2017-18. The experiment was conducted under field condition. The screening revealed that none of the test lines or varieties was immune, highly resistant or resistant. All the varieties were susceptible. However, the disease ranged from 64.00% (TNPm 247) to 94.67% (Co 5 (local check)). The disease intensity was less in TNPm 247 (64.00) followed by GPUP 21 (68.00) and was highest in TNAU 151 (81.33) followed by GPUP (76.00).
