Abstract


The studies were conducted at Agricultural Research Institute Tarnab, Peshawar to evaluate eight pea lines (nearly isogenic) against powdery mildew and some quantitative traits during cropping season 2009-10. Out of eight, four test entries were found resistant, one moderately resistant and three were susceptible. The lines, 26713 and 27315 showed maximum resistance to the disease while the line 27313 was the most susceptible. The lines 27310 and 26719, excelled in pods plant-1 and Grains pod-1 respectively.
