Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during kharif, 2018 at the Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram, Acharya N. G. Ranga Agricultural University, to identify the resistant sources for Rhizoctonia solani which causes banded blight disease in little millet. Among them none of the variety could exhibit the immune reaction, in which one variety is found to be resistant and three varieties are found to be moderately resistant whereas RLM 223 (check) recorded as highly susceptible to banded blight. The percent disease incidence of Banded blight (Sheath blight) ranged from 4.4% (IIMRLM-8437-17) to 92.0% (JK 8 and TNPSu 202) where it was 95.3% in susceptible check RLM 223.
