Abstract: Web blight (Rhizoctonia solani) of mungbean is a very destructive disease caused by fungus Rhizoctonia solani. In India, mungbean crop suffers a great loss due to this disease.Use of resistant genotypes is the best method of avoiding the occurrence of the disease. Keeping this point in view, fifty two genotypes of mungbean were tested for the resistance against web blight in field condition. Out of fifty two genotypes of mungbean were carried out under field condition of natural infection, where twenty nine genotypes viz.; BM 2012-09, Palampur 93/kulu-4, LGC 574, NUL 516, T-44, SGC 20, SML 1082 (SC), IPM 312-19, IGKM 06-42, VG 10-008, MH 921, ML 2412, PUSA 571, RMG 1082, PUSA 1472, ML 2410, ML 2333, COGG-912, KM 2348, AKM 12-17, IPM 312-20, GM 11-02, KM 2241, ML 818, HUM-1, CO6, LGG 460, IPM 02-3 and GM 04-02 were found resistant, five genotypes were recorded moderately resistant, thirteen genotypes were noticed moderately susceptible, four genotypes viz.; NVL 825, DUG 5, VBN 4, RMG 1028 were recorded susceptible. Only one genotype K-851was found highly susceptible.
