Jute (Corchorus spp) is one of the commercial crops of Nepal and cultivation is mostly confined in Jhapa, Morang, Sunsari, Siraha Saptari and Udaipur districts of eastern region of the country. Among the jute diseases, stem rot (Macrophomina phaseolina) is the most important disease of jute equally affecting both the species viz., Corchorus olitorius (tossa jute) and C. capsularis (white jute). This disease is prevalent in all the jute growing areas of the world. So, considering the importance of this disease, this study was carried out to identify sources of resistance in jute germplasm (Corchorus olitorius) against deadly disease of stem rot. For the study six C. olitorious jute germplasm including one standard check (Itahari-2) were evaluated against stem rot at Itahari for three consecutive years 2019-2021 under replicated conditions with the plot size of 3×3 m2 applied randomized complete block design (RCBD). Out of six germplasm of jute, only JRO-524 was found resistant with disease rating scale (0.73, 0.68, 0.63) against the stem rot disease over the years at Itahari conditions. Rest of the lines also showed resistant to moderately resistant differently over the years. This germplasm line JRO-524 possessed good degree of resistance against stem rot of jute under natural epiphytotic condition at Itahari location which could be further exploited for resistance breeding programme against this deadly disease. Rest of the tested genotypes reacted moderately resistant over the years.
