Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to screening the mungbean germplasm against sucking pests. The data revealed that the population of whitefly ranged from 3.66 to 23.30/cage. The maximum white fly population was recorded in genotype RMG-1092 (23.30 white fly/cage) followed by AKM 12-14 and GAM-5(13.66 whitefly/cage) and minimum (3.66 whitefly/cage) in genotype MDGVV-16. However, the population of jassid was ranged between 7.33 to 30.00/cage. The maximum jassid population was recorded in genotype VGG 10-008 (30.00 jassid/cage), followed by COGG-912 (28.00 jassid/cage) and minimum (7.33 jassid/cage) in genotype PUSA-1672. The population of thrips ranged from 3.80 to 8.80 per five plants. The maximum population of thrips was recorded in genotype IGKM 06-26-5(8.80 thrips/5 plants) followed by NKM 15-12 (8.70 thrips/5 plants). While the minimum population of thrips was observed in NBPGR-150 (3.80 thrips/5 plants).
