A study was carried out to investigate the yield and yield components of isolated mutants of a mungbean variety Asha in M3 generation. All these mutants isolated for higher plant yield have also shown higher values for the number of fertile branches and pods per plant as compared to control. Coefficient of variations (Phenotypic and genotypic), heritability and the genetic advance for the number of fertile branches, number of pods and the total plant yield also reveal a higher value in all the mutants.
