Plants parasitic nematodes are one of the limiting constraints of banana production in India as annual yield losses due to them are 12%(Rs.296 crores).(jain et al.2007). Yield losses due to root -lesion nematode (Pratylenchus coffeae) on banana is 44%(Sundararaju and Cannayane, 2003).Managing nematodes using resistant cultivars is a simple economic and environmentally safe method.Popular banana cultivars viz. nandra, poovan,Virupakshi etc.were susceptible to p.coffeae.(Sundararaju 2010).Available resistant sources from wild Musa germplasm cannot be used directly as they are poor yielders and not preferred byconsumers.Therefore,a pot screening experiment was conducted ton find out resistant sources NRCB selections viz. Bangrier(NRCB selection 7) Saba (NRCB selection 9)and Namwakhom (NRCB selection 10) and local cultivars viz .kothia and Monthan.All these cultivars contain ABB genoname and belong to Monthan group except Namwakhom which belong to 'Pisang Awak' group.
