Through a systematic program of interspecific hybridization between YMV susceptible varieties of P. aureus (‘Hyb’. 45, ‘T-44’ and ‘Pusa Baisakhi’) and P. sublobatus (resistant to YMV), plant materials have been produced in mung bean which not only showed resistant to YMV but also exhibited enormous genetic variability with respect to yield components and plant type.
