Abstract

Eighty three mungbean germplasm were screened in the field against mungbean yellow mosaic virus. Nine germplasm were found as resistant, 16 as moderately resistant, 11 as moderately susceptible, 37 susceptible and 10 as highly susceptible during 2001. Whereas, 7 germplasm were found as resistant, 14 as moderately resistant, 14 as moderately susceptible, 35 susceptible and 13 as highly susceptible during 2001.
