Summary
Mung bean cultivar MGS Esmeralda was developed by the Asian Vegetable Research and Development Centre (Shanhua, Taiwan), as a result of crossing between lines VC 1973A and VC 2768A. In ten trials conducted in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, it produced 13.5% higher grains than 'Ouro Verde MG-2' (control cultivar), and its highest yield was 2550 kg ha-1. MGS Esmeralda is more susceptible to lodging, and its pods mature more uniformly than Ouro Verde MG-2 pods. The 100-seed mass of MGS Esmeralda varied between 5.5 and 6.8 g. Both cultivars are susceptible to powdery mildew (Erysiphe polygoni) and Cercospora leaf spot (Cercospora canescens).
