“…Tolerance against CLS showed to be recessive to susceptibility. The results agreed with the findings of Mishra et al (1988) and Duangsong et al (2018), while contrary to Singh et al (2017), who found resistance as controlled by a single dominant gene, and Choudhary et al (2021), who concluded it as manipulated by two genes. Therefore, the hypothesis of a susceptibility-causing gene may be any plant factor responsible for the replication or spread of Cercospora.…”

Pulses are notably good nutritive complements of carbohydrate-rich staple diets, such as, wheat, maize, and rice. Mung bean is an essential pulse crop with different proteins and antioxidants proven beneficial for health. The yield of mung bean in Pakistan is comparable to the world average, but overall production is low because of several biotic and abiotic factors. Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) is one of mung bean’s most damaging diseases, limiting its productivity, causing significant losses in yield and an overall gap in production. The presented investigation progressed to comprehending the genetics of resistance to CLS in mung bean. A minicore set of 293 mung bean genotypes developed and maintained by the World Vegetable Center, Taiwan, served as samples in the study. Observed CLS attacks occur during flowering and reduce the yield by decreasing the number of pods per plant. The genetics to resistance against CLS has a single recessive gene controlling it; hence, homozygous recessive plants will be CLS-resistant. Therefore, single gene transfer methods, such as, backcross breeding, are recommendable for incorporating CLS resistance in high-yielding mung bean genotypes.
