Abstract
Yellow mosaic disease (YMD) is still a major constraint to mungbean production around the world, and controlling this deadly disease remains the most difficult task. Using advanced molecular approaches to characterise YMD resistance during plant-virus interactions, a comprehensive network of pathogen survival, disease severity, and plant response to pathogens has been revealed. Thus, finding ways to manage YMD, such as developing resistant mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV) varieties, is a top research priority for the mungbean production to achieve the goal of global food safety and security. This article summarizes the role of begomoviruses, its genomic components, vector whiteflies, and implications of various management practices including the use of resistance sources, the primary source of inoculum and vector management, are discussed. Finally, the prospects of employing gene editing using CRISPR/Cas9 are also highlighted.
