Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Nature Protection, Landscape Conservation, grade: 8.43, , language: English, abstract: This book covers the various aspects such as morphological characterization and evaluation of mungbean germplasm, laboratory evaluation of PHS resistance using various pod and seed parameters, Identification of PHS resistance/tolerant germplasm, study of association and direct and indirect effect of various characters on pre-harvest sprouting.

Mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] is one of the important grain legumes of global economic importance. It requires hot and dry climate. Among the three seasons, kharif is most important and in this season pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is a big problem causing huge losses in production. Nearly 60-70% of yield losses have been reported in green gram and black gram due to PHS. In view of the substantial losses caused by PHS, it is imperative to develop PHS tolerant varieties for yield improvement in mungbean. However, the information on these aspects is lacking because little work has been done on this crop.
