 ABSTRACT

Seven mungbean genotypes viz., ML-267, LGG-528, MGG-390, WGG-42, AKM-9904, LM-95, EC-362096 and their 21 F1 crosses were evaluated for yield, yield attributes and water use efficiency related traits. The analysis of variance for ten yield attributing parameters, three water use efficiency related parameters and one thermo tolerance related parameter revealed highly significant differences which indicated the existence of sufficient variability in the material. The mean squares due to crosses was also found highly significant for all the characters studied indicating significant genetic differences among crosses.  The crosses MGG-390 × LM-95, LM-95 × EC-362096 and ML-267 × LGG-528 would be effective for genetic enhancement of yield and its components along with drought tolerant traits.
