Abstract: |
180 and 219 cultivars of fingermllet genotypesreceived from various national as well asinternational institutions were evaluated under fieldcondition at Kabre and Lumle continuouslyfor two years 2003 and 2004 respectively to find out sources of resistance to Cercospora leafspot. Maximum number of fingermillet cultivated 82at Kabre and 18 at Lumle were resistant toCercospora leaf spot. Among them millet genotypessuch as KLE-154, KLE-157, KLE-167, KLE-216, KLE-247, KLE-248, KLE-255, KLE-290, GE-SIS, COLL#KN-26, COLL#KN-59 and Coll.#GYN-48 were recorded upto moderately resistant to the disease and agronomicallysuperior for both year at Kabre and one year at Lumle thai might be used in breeding programmeto develop new millet varieties and some of them could be recommended for general cultivation.
