Background: Yellow mosaic disease (YMD) caused by Mungbean Yellow Mosaic Virus (MYMV) is one of the most destructive biotic constraints for production in urdbean. Development and introduction of resistant cultivars with high seed yield is considered as the most economical and eco-friendly option to manage YMD, for which understanding the gene action controlling the inheritance of different traits along with YMD resistance is an important requirement. Methods: Material comprised of four diverse genotypes (TU 94-2, PU 31, IPU 94-1 and LBG 623), six F1s, six BC1s and six BC2s and six F2s. These six generations of all the six crosses were evaluated for various yield related traits in rabi, 2020-21 and phenotyped for YMD in summer, 2021 at Lam, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh which is hotspot for YMD. Result: Inadequacy of additive-dominant model for all most all traits including YMD except for test weight was observed. It was found that, [l] type of non-allelic interaction was observed to be predominant for majority of the traits. Further, the existence of duplicate type of epistasis in the inheritance was evident at least in few crosses for all the traits (except days to maturity). The duplicate epistasis will reduce the variation in F2 and subsequent generations, thereby hinder the pace of the progress through selection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
