The field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2021-22 at Saheed Gundadhur College of Agriculture and Research Station, Jagdalpur, IGKV, Raipur (CG), to evaluate the kodo millet resistant genotypes for banded blight disease (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn). Nineteen genotypes evaluated with one susceptible check (JK78) and one resistant check (RK 390-25) under an initial advanced varietal trail were revealed that all genotypes were promising resistance for head smut and where showed the banded blight range between 0 to 63.58%. Genotype KMV 557 (0.0%) found immune reaction and IIMR KM 4 (27.2%) found promising for moderately resistant against the banded blight. In resistance check the disease incidence was observed 15.4%
