Abstract: Wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris is a devastating disease of chickpea in India. In the present study 31 entries from ICRISAT were screened for 2014-15 and 2015-16 under field condition to identify genetic sources of resistance against this disease at Agriculture research station Kalaburagi. Disease reaction at different stages revealed considerable variation among the entries. At different stages percent mean disease incidence varied from 02.87 to 100 % and 12.86 to 100 % for two different years respectively. Among the entries, 10 entries were shown resistant (ICC 14199, ICCV 06302, ICCV 07104, ICC 07112, ICCV 07117, ICCV 08119, ICCV 98503, ICCV 08312, ICCV 08324, ICCV 08122), 18 were moderately resistant (ICC 11322, ICCV 08318, ICCV 08121, ICCV 08118, ICCV 08102, ICCV 08112, ICCV 08114, ICCV 08115, ICCV 07307, ICCV 07312, ICC 8522, ICC 14402, ICC 14402, ICCV 06302, ICC 07112, ICCV 08102, ICCV 08114, ICCV 08118), 18 were susceptible (ICCV 05534, ICCV 05532, ICCV 05530, ICC 14199, ICC 8522, ICCV07104, ICCV 07312, ICCV 07313, ICCV 08101, ICCV 08112, ICCV 08115, ICCV 08119, ICCV 08312, ICC 11322, ICCV 98503, ICCV 08318, ICC 14449, ICCV 04608) and 10 were highly susceptible (ICCV 08121, ICCV 08122, ICC 5003, ICCV 07307, ICCV 07117, ICCV 04608, ICC 14449, ICC 4951, ICC 5003, ICCV 07313). These entries may be exploited for the development of resistant cultivars against wilt and can be use for further development of resistant lines against Fusarium wilt in future.
