Mungbean G × E interaction unveiling resistance to Cercospora leaf spot through GGE biplot analysis.

ABSTRACT: Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by Cercospora canescens, is a major threat to mungbean production worldwide. The disease is complicated by its wide host range, diverse pathogenic strains, and the influence of environmental factors. Understanding the interplay between the host, pathogen, and environmental conditions is crucial for developing effective control measures. In a bid to identify and validate CLS resistant mungbean genotypes we conducted multi-environment trials; Genomic selection of mungbean for resistance against CLS necessitates pre-identification in diverse environments. Initially, 110 genotypes were screened under controlled conditions in which thirty-day-old mungbean plants were thoroughly sprayed with the spore suspension using a glass atomizer. After three weeks of reva
