Genetic Parameters for Determining Useful Parents in Mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) Breeding for Early Maturity, Small Seed Size, and High Seed Yield

Table 1

Characteristics of parents used for diallel crosses of mungbean varieties.

Parent code	Parents	Characters^a)
G1	MMC 679-3C-GT-1	Early maturity, short plants, medium seed size, green hypocotyl, and dull green seed color
G2	MMC 672-3C-GT-1	Early maturity, short plant performance, medium seeds size, green hypocotyl, and shiny green seed color
G3	Sampeong	Late maturity, high plant performance, small seed size, shiny green seeds color, and purple hypocotyl
G4	Vima 2	Early maturity, resistant to soilborne diseases, medium seed size, green hypocotyl, and shiny green seed color
G5	MLG 1065	Medium maturity, large seed size, and dull green seed color

^a)Maturity: early maturity = < 60 days after planting; late maturity = > 70 days after planting. Seed size: small seed size = < 3 g of 100-seeds weight, large seed size = > 6 g of 100-seeds weight.
