Field evaluation of 36 advanced generation breeding material and parental lines of safflower was carried out under wilt sick plot condition at Solapur, Tandur and IIOR, Hyderabad for identifying resistant sources against Fusarium wilt. Three genotypes viz., SAF-1717, SAF-P-1603 and SAF-P-1608 were found moderately resistant to Fusarium wilt at all three locations. These resistant sources can be used in breeding programme for development of a variety resistant to Fusarium wilt.
