Abstract: Chickpea is an important pulse crop, ranking first among pulse crops in Madhya Pradesh and third in India. Chickpea dry root rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola is the most important disease and causes severe losses in yield In the investigation, 126 chickpea genotypes were evaluated to find out the resistance reaction against dry root rot under dry root rot sick micro-plots during rabi season of 2014-2015 and 2015-2016. Out of 126 genotypes tested against root rot disease 22 were found resistant, 43 were moderately resistant, 37 were moderately susceptible, 7 were susceptible and 17 were highly susceptible to dry root rot disease.
