Abstract: Twenty three genotypes of foxtail millet were screened for sheath blight disease severity caused by Rhizoctonia solani were studied during kharif, 2019 at Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh. The screening revealed that none of the test lines or varieties was immune or highly resistant. However, SIA 4200 (51.0), IIMR FXM 4 (64.0) and DHFT 109-3-2 (65.0) were recorded as susceptible. Percent disease severity ranged from 51.0% (SIA 4200) to 95.7% (SIA 3220) whereas it was 96.9% in susceptible check (SiA 3367).
