Ninety one cultivars of mungbean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek were screened
for resistance to whitefly, Bemiria tabaci G.; jassid, Empoasca moti P.; pod
borers, Lampides boeticus L., Maruca testulalis G. and Heliothis armigera H.;
and yellow mosaic virus in the field for two seasons, 1977 and 1978. Four
cultivars viz. ML 194, ML 195, ML 235 and 15127 were found to be resistant to
these pests as well as the virus. [AS]

A total of 6775 soybean and 3713 mungbean accessions was screened for
resistance to the beanfly, Ophiomyia phaseoli (Tryon), and 2 other agromyzlds,
0. centrosematis (de Meijere), and Melanagromyza sojae (Zehntner), in mass
scre!ening trials during 2 yL. Since no immune accessions were found in the
preliminary screeding, we did a directional selection and screaned the least
affected entries a 2nd and 3rd time. We selected 16 soybean and 28 mungbean
accessions that were least affected. When tested at 6 locations around Taiwan,
4 soybean and 3 mungbean accessions were least affected at all locations. These
soybean accessions were highly resistant and mungbean accessions were
moderately resistant to all 3 species. These accessions are now being used to
breed resistance into high yield potential commercial varieties of these crops.

MEETING: Symposium on Legumes in the Tropics -- Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia,
A total of 6775 soybean and 3713 mungbean accessions from AVRDC and 369
snapbean accessions from CIAT were screened at AVRDC for beanfly resistance.
Four soybean accessions, G 3089, G 3091, G 3104, and G 3122 are highly
resistant. Three mungbean accessions, V 2396, V 3495, and V 4281 are considered
to be moderately resistant. One snapbean accession, G 35023, fell in high
resistance and seven accessions, G 35075, G 35122, G 08047, G 08408, G 05478, G
02472, and P 492 fell in the moderate resistance category. These material
appear to be promising for use in a resistance breeding program. [THH]

All 112 lines of blackgram were screened for resistance to pod borers under
the conditions of natural infection for four consecutive seasons of 1976-1980.
All lines were sown in double rows of 5 m length with a spacing of 30 x 10 cm.
Test lines were sown between the rows of local check CO 4. All normal cultural
