Blackgram lines No. 1792 and Warangal, maintained in the Tamil Nadu Agric.
Univ., showed resistance to powdery mildews. The two lines were grown in rows
of 10' length alternated with the susceptible variety CO 2 to test whether they
showed resistance under high disease pressure. The trials were repeated for
three seasons in two locations. The test lines along with CO 2 were also grown
under greenhouse conditions and inoculated four times with heavy conidial
inoculum. No.1792 showed slight incidence of the disease in one season in the
field and in the greenhouse. But Warangal was highly resistant to the disease.

'ML 5' was developed from the cross 'Mung No. 54' x 'Hyb. 45'. It has erect
and compact plant type and profuse pod bearing capacity. It is fairly resistant
to yellow mosaic virus under field conditions. It matures in about 90 days and
can be successfully grown in rotation with wheat. 'ML 5' outyielded 'Jawahar
45' and 'ML 1'. [THH]

During the 1975 rabi (winter) season 51 blackgram F3 families of Netiminumu
x Chikkuduminumu were studied for their reaction to powdery mildew in the field
and a few families were found to be less susceptible, whereas line 17 was found
to be immune. [TRH]
