Zusammenfassung:Powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe graminis DC f. sp. tritici Marchal is a major disease of wheat in the temperate regionsof the world. In India, it takes heavy toll of the crop in the Himalayan foot-hills. Hence, it is desirable to develop powdery mildew resistant wheat varieties for the disease prone areas. Two Triticum aestivum lines from CIMMYT, viz. CPAN 1922 and CPAN 1946 were found to be resistant to powdery mildew at Gurdaspur. The present investigation deals with the mode of inheritance of resistance from these sources.
