ABSTRACT

Chickpea dry root rot caused by Rhioctonia bataticola is the most destructive disease and causes severe losses in yield. Therefore the present investigation were undertaken to screen different genotypes for their resistance to dry root rot. A pot culture experiment was conducted for screening of chickpea breeders promising entries (12 + 1 susceptible check JG-62) during rabi season of 2004-2005 and 2005-2006. Out of 12 genotypes tested against root rot disease 4 were found resistant, 2 were moderately susceptible, 3 were susceptible and 3 were highly susceptible to dry root rot disease.
