Abstract

Forty inbred lines of maize were indexed against banded leaf and sheath blight (BLSB) caused by Rhizoctonia solani f. sp. sasakii. The lines were artificially inoculated under pot culture conditions. Out of forty, four inbred lines viz., BAJIM08-90-1-6- 1, BAJIM 6128, CML437-B-B, and CML 164 were found highly resistant (HR) with disease score of 1. Bajuara Makka 1, HKI 488, HKI 1105, CML 165, CML 336, CML 439, CML 437, BML 6, CML414, L 292, CML 437-B-B, L 265, BAJIM 95-60-5, CML 460, Sarhad-HSRB, LM 13, VQL 2, CML 169, and HKI 162 were rated as resistant with disease score of 3. The remaining inbred lines were highly susceptible.
