Evaluation of 10 maize inbreeds against Maydis Leaf Blight of maize (Bipolaris maydis (Nisik) Shoemaker) was carried out in ANGRAU - AICRP Maize Research Station, Peddapuram, Andhra Pradesh during rainy season for two consecutive years of 2019 & 2020. Disease scoring was done as per standard rating scale (1-9) on individual plant at 7 days intervals starting from 37 days after sowing. Among these ten inbreeds (CM 400, CM 500, CM 501, CM 600, BML 6, BML 7, SURYA, Early Composite, LM 14 and IIMRSBTPOOL) CM 501 showed resistant reaction with disease score of 3.0, CM 400 showed moderately susceptible reaction to the MLB and remaining inbred lines expressed moderately resistant reaction to the disease with disease score between 3.1 to 5.0.
