Groundnut leaf miner is an oligophagous pest that feeds on leguminous host plants and also on groundnut both in rainy and post rainy season in India and the yield losses can reach up to 76 per cent (Anonymous, 1986) [2]. An experiment was conducted to study the incidence of this pest by screening different groundnut genotypes. Based on the incidence of this pest genotypes TCGS-894 and TCGS-1097 were ranked as highly resistant, ASK-2013-1 was ranked as moderately resistant and Narayani, K-1563, K-4 and Dharani were ranked as susceptible towards their reaction to groundnut leaf miner.
