Abstract: The pigeonpea germplasms/genotypes were evaluated to identify the sources of resistance to Fusarium wilt disease. The F. udum is host specific to pigeonpea and can survive in soil under wilted plant stubble for a long period. The best way of wilt management is by growing resistant varieties. Out of 54 screened genotypes, twenty one genotypes viz. BDN2001-6, BRG2-7, CORG2004-01, CORG990013, H2000-37, H2000-47, IPC7119, IPC8863, IPA14F, JKM186, JKM197, JKM204, JKM205, JKM209, KAWR11, KAWR91, NTL30, PT02-25, PT02-5, PT11-39, and PUSA2005-1 were found resistant, 15 moderately resistant, 13 tolerant, 4 moderately susceptible and 1 genotype were highly susceptible against fusarium wilt. The most susceptible variety Bahar showed 80 per cent wilting.
