Randomized trial evaluated yield traits in lablab bean progenies, indicating genetic diversity for crop improvement.

The aim was to enhance yield in lablab bean by evaluating biparental progenies for various traits.
32 biparental progenies evaluated in randomized block design with 3 replications
Comprehensive set of traits analyzed including pod number, pod weight, and seed characteristics
Key growth phases such as germination and harvest days assessed for variability.
Significant variation in pod number per plant (36–185) and individual pod weight (19.36–43.31 g) observed.
Highest yielding line, BP-12, produced 1120.00 g of pod yield per plant.
Identified promising lines (BP-1, BP-12, BP-21, BP-18) for superior yield attributes.

Kalyan et al. (2026) studied this question.
