Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Ten entries of Mungbean collected from Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan were evaluated at Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna during Kharif I, 2017. Significant differences among the genotypes were observed in all characters studied except pods per plant. The entry MB-03 followed by MB-07 and MB-06 flowered earlier. In case of maturity, MB-03 followed by MB-06 and MB-07 matured earlier. Highest pods per plant was obtained from MB-06 followed by MB-7 and lowest was obtained from MB-10. All the genotypes showed resistance to moderately resistance of MYMV except MB-01 was moderately susceptible to MYMV. Among the entries highest yield (1321 kg/ha) was obtained from MB-03 followed by MB-08, MB-7 and MB-06.

Keywords: Mungbean, Kharif I, Grain yield, Genotypes, Pulses

Location: Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2016

End Date: 00-00-2017

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Mungbean

Objectives:

To develop such a bridge between each of the member countries, such an experiment on Mungbean was programmed with genotypes collected from different SAARC countries through SAIC, Bangladesh.

Methodology:

The experiment laid out in a RCB design with 3 replications at Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna during Kharif I, 2017. Seeds were sown in the field on 26 March, 2017. Each entry was sown in unit plot of 4 rows × 4 m long with spacing of 40×10 cm. Seeds were sown in the rows carefully by hands at 3 cm depth and then covered by soils. Post sowing irrigation was given to ensure seed germination. Mulching was done and soil crusts were broken. Each of the entries were investigated from seedling to harvest and compared with check. Grain yield was calculated from the whole plot. At maturity best individual genotypes were selected on the basis of earliness, disease reaction and higher yield. Yield data was recorded from the whole plot and converted into kg/ha. The statistical analysis was done using STAR 2.0.1 computer software.
