Differential response of mungbean

Ethylene is an important phytohormone that regulates several aspects of plant development including those crucial for drought tolerance. The main aim of the present work was to investigate variability in ethylene sensitivity of mungbeans to seed germination, waterlogging, and leaf senescence, and the underlying transcriptional regulation of ethylene biosynthetic/responsive genes. Significant variation was observed for silver-nitrate–mediated germination inhibition and flooding stress tolerance among the mungbean genotypes.

One of the benefits of mungbeans is its nutritional properties. Of the seven essential micronutrients, especially iron and zinc play a vital role in human and animal health. Breeding for varieties with a potential high concentration of micronutrients should be complemented with studies of environmental effects on the accumulation of micronutrients in seeds. Our major emphasis was to see the effect of iron and zinc supplementation on seed micronutrient content and other agronomic traits.

Twelve genotypes of mungbean were evaluated for three different sowing dates at Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri. The data on seed yield were subjected to genotype × environment interaction analysis to identify high yielding stable mungbean genotype. Significant G × E interaction depicted differential performance of the genotypes over environments. Based on stability analysis, it was concluded that the genotypes, Utkarsha and Vaibhav were found to be high yielders, stable performers with below average response to environments which can be recommended for favourable environments.
