Abstract

The present investigation aimed to identify resistance in urdbean (Vigna mungo) against yellow mosaic disease (YMD), urdbean leaf crinkle disease complex (ULCD) and Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) in a field trial conducted at Regional Research and Technology Transfer Station, Keonjhar (AICRP on MULLaRP sub-centre), OUAT, Odisha. Twenty four urdbean genotypes were screened in the summer season of the year of 2012- 2013 and 2013-2014. The severity of YMD and CLS was recorded following 0-9 scale and disease incidence was accounted for ULCD. The urdbean genotypes evaluated were grouped into different categories based on disease reaction. The present results indicated that genotype P-104 was immune to YMD, CLS and ULCD, two genotypes, P-102 and P-103 exhibited resistance to YMD and CLS and P-101 showed susceptibility to YMD but immune to CLS. Two genotypes PU 14-11 and P-107 showed highly resistance to both YMD and CLS but susceptible to ULCD. The genotype PU 14-7 showed moderately susceptible to YMD and CLS but immune to ULCD. Rest of the genotypes were moderately to highly susceptible. It is concluded that 3 genotypes (P-104, P-102 and P-108) could be exploited for resistance breeding of urdbean against YMD, CLS and ULCD and P-104, PU 14-7 and PU 14-1 for ULCD. The urdbean genotypes P-105, P-108, P-109 and PU 14-1 could be the choice for resistance against ULCD.
