Abstract: Nineteen finger millet (Eleusine coracana) genotypes were evaluated for resistance to blast (Pyricularia grisea) at Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh, India, during kharif, 2018 under natural disease pressure. None of the genotypes was found free from disease incidence. Minimum percentage of neck and finger blast severity was recorded in VR 1101 (16.5 and 18.6%) and the maximum percentage of disease severity was observed in RAuF (81.3 and 80.1%) whereas it was 83.3 and 83.0% in Udurumalliga (check) respectively. Minimum percentage of banded blight was recorded in VR 1101 (25.6%) and the maximum percentage of banded blight was observed in PR 1511 (92.7%).
