Abstract: Eighteen genotypes of foxtail millet were screened for sheath blight disease severity caused by Rhizoctonia solani were studied during kharif, 2018 at Agricultural Research Station, Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh. The screening revealed that none of the test lines or varieties was immune or highly resistant. However, SiA 3159 (35.5) and SiA 3274 (38.2) was recorded as moderately resistant. Percent disease severity ranged from 15.9% (GSCY-1) to 96.0% (DHFT 53-3) whereas it was 96.7% in susceptible check (SiA 3367).
