Abstract: A total of 19 Kodo millet varieties including check were evaluated for resistance to banded blight at Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram during kharif, 2019-20. The experiment was conducted under field condition. The screening revealed that none of the test lines or varieties was immune or highly resistant. DK 159 (33.33), which was recorded as moderately susceptible. Varieties TNPS 262 (90.00) and BK 20 (89.33) recorded highest disease severity, JK-76 (96.00) (local) as highly susceptible. Percent disease severity ranged from 54.00% (RPS 1005) to 90.00% (TNPS 262) whereas it was 96.00% in susceptible check and it was 21.00% in resistant check.
