To study the performance of mungbean lines, an experiment was conducted from July to November 2003. Sixteen genotypes including two checks were tested for yield and other agronomic traits in a randomized block design with three replications. The lines WGG-37, ORM-1 and COGG-2 gave high yields at 970.8 kg/ha, 950.0 kg/ha and 845.8 kg/ha respectively. Most of the lines exhibited improved seed size (74–79 g) compared with the checks (60–71 g). A significant difference in pods/plant and grain yield was observed.
