Evaluation of sowing dates for managing yellow mosaic disease caused by mungbean yellow mosaic India virus in mungbean.

ABSTRACT: Yellow mosaic disease, a most important destructive disease of mungbean production caused by Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) under North Indian conditions. However, management of this deadly disease is still becoming the biggest challenge due to breaking of resistance under changing climatic conditions. Hence, a field experiment was conducted at IARI, New Delhi, India during Kharif 2021 and Spring-Summer 2022 to understand the sowing date influence on incidence of MYMIV in mungbean resistant (Pusa 1371) and susceptible (Pusa 9531) cultivars. The results revealed the higher disease incidence percentage (PDI) in the first sowing (15-20th July) of Kharif and third sowing (5-10th April) of Spring-Summer season. The mean PDI ranged from 25-41% to 11.80-13.54% for resistant fol
