exhibited enormous genetic variability with respect to yield components and

Resistance in Crop Plants -- Vienna, Austria, Jan 31-Feb 4, 1977
Yellow mosaic is a serious disease of mungbean and heavy losses in grain
yield may occur, depending on the severity of the disease. Genetic resistance
against this disease does not exist in the local or the exotic material so far
screened in Pakistan. Eight local cultivars were irradiated with various
gamma-ray doses using a 60 Co source. Screening against yellow mosaic disease
was done in the M3 generation so as to recover recessive mutations. Of 128
single plant selections made in the M3 generation on the basis of their
apparent disease resistance behavior, it was eventually possible to select six
mutant lines showing resistance to yellow mosaic. Some of the mutant lines are
short in stature compared with the parent. The possible uses of these dwarf
resistant lines as commercial varietie6 and for breeding programs are
discussed. [AS]

Two selections of mungbean developed from a cross between 'L. 24-2' and
'Pusa Baisakhi' were found to be free of yellow mosaic virus and high yielding
