Abstract: A total of 9 barnyard 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 or highly resistant. However, TNEf 204 (49.33) and VL 172 (45.33) was recorded as moderately susceptible and DHBM 99-6, DHBM 19-7 and RBM 36 (73.33) were recorded as susceptible, VMBC 331 (local) as highly susceptible, it was 90.67% in susceptible check. Mean of all five locations has revealed that VL 172 (132.52) as resistant and three varieties were moderately susceptible. However, highest disease was recorded in DHBM 19-7 (77.85).
