Development of infectious clones of mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV, Begomovirus vignaradiataindiaense) infecting mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek] and evaluation of a RIL population for MYMIV resistance.

ABSTRACT: Yellow mosaic disease (YMD) is a major constraint for the low productivity of mungbean, mainly in South Asia. Addressing this issue requires a comprehensive approach, integrating field and challenge inoculation evaluations to identify effective solutions. In this study, an infectious clone of Begomovirus vignaradiataindiaense (MYMIV) was developed to obtain a pure culture of the virus and to confirm resistance in mungbean plants exhibiting resistance under natural field conditions. The infectivity and efficiency of three Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains (EHA105, LBA4404, and GV3101) were evaluated using the susceptible mungbean genotype PS16. Additionally, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population comprising 175 lines derived from Pusa Baisakhi (MYMIV susceptible) and PMR-1 (MYMIV resist
