Thirty-one  Capsicum  accessions collected in Ghana and 20  Capsicum  accessions introduced from Sri Lanka were evaluated for resistance to bacterial wilt and to Phytophthora blight. In the evaluation of resistance to bacterial wilt, 12 seedlings per accessions were transplanted to the infected field with  Pseudomonas solanacearum . Subsequently, an inoculum suspension was poured into the soil at the base of each plant with root wounding. Disease severity of each plant was evaluated using a symptom index of 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (death) scale at 10 weeks after inoculation. In the evaluation of resistance to Phytophthora blight, 20 seedlings per accession were transplanted into a bed, the soil temperature of which was maintained at 28°C after root-dipping inoculation. Disease severity of each plant was evaluated using a symptom index of 0 (no symptoms) to 2 (death) scale at 2 weeks after inoculation. To bacterial wilt, two Ghanaian accessions and 10 Sri Lankan accessions had no symptoms and nine Ghanaian accessions and six Sri Lankan accessions showed some wilted plants, but their disease indices were less than 1. The accessions were regarded as resistant. To Phytophthora blight, two Ghanaian accessions and four Sri Lankan accessions were regarded as weakly resistant. Remaining accessions were regarded as susceptible. `GJ93/287' collected in Ghana and `Nil miris', `MI 1', `KA 11', introduced from Sri Lanka, were resistant to bacterial wilt and weakly resistant to Phytophthora blight.
