The researchers studied genetic traits in mungbean plants to improve their yield. They looked at ten different characteristics over three years and found that the number of pods per plant and seed yield are highly heritable and have a strong genetic influence. These traits are directly linked to higher seed production. The study suggests that the number of pods per plant and seed yield are mainly controlled by genetic factors, making them important for breeding programs to enhance mungbean productivity.
