Abstract

Urdbean is an important pulse crop in Indian sub-continent. Breeding for earliness is a priority trait in urdbean. In the present study, a set of urdbean advanced breeding lines derived from intra-specific hybridization were tested multiple years over multiple seasons. A few genotypes were identified as early maturity (60-65 days). However, IPU 1927 was promising early maturing urdbean genotype with desirable plant type and yellow mosaic disease resistance.
