Green gram and Black gram genotypes/germplasms were evaluated to identify the sources of resistance to leaf spot, powdery Mildew and mung bean yellow mosaic virus (mymv) diseases. Screening was done under natural field conditions at Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Warangal, Telangana State, India. The experimental material consisted fifty two AICRP + nine advanced Warangal Green gram entries with two checks and 10 state Warangal Black gram entries with a check, which were screened against the major diseases during Kharif-2015 at RARS, Warangal. Out of sixty three Green gram entries, only one KMP-13 was moderately resistant to Cercospora leaf spot disease, three entries viz., KMP-36, KMP-39 and KMP-41 were found highly resistant to powdery mildew, ten entries viz., KMP-13,19,20,22,23,24,40,45,MLGG-8 and WGG-42 were found immune to mung bean yellow mosaic virus disease. Out of eleven Black gram entries, only one MASH-338 was moderately resistant to Corynespora leaf spot disease, four entries viz., PU-31, MASH-338, LBG-752 and MBG-1050 were found moderately resistant to powdery mildew and two entries viz., PU-31 and MASH-338 were found immune to mung bean yellow mosaic virus disease. Resistants’ can be exploited to develop high yielding varieties of Green gram and Black gram by breeding.
