Mungbean can effectively contribute in alleviation of iron, zinc and protein malnutrition as it is a source of micronutrients and protein. To improve this cultivars have to be developed which are rich in micronutrients and protein. But in general more focus is given to quantitative traits such as yield. Breeding mungbean for enhanced grain nutrients is still in its start-up phase. The present study was carried out to access genetic variation for both quantitative as qualitative traits. The correlation between important traits such as yield and Fe, Zn, protein content was calculated. A positive correlation was found between iron and zinc content (r = 0.47) whereas no significant correlation with grain yield was observed indicating no compromise of yield for improving quality. Breeding a cultivar which is nutritionally improved along with high yield is therefore possible. A few promising cultivars with high micronutrients, protein and yield were identified. These cultivars can be used in specific breeding programs aiming at nutrient-rich high yielding cultivars.

The spatial patterns of genetic variation for 15 loci in 18 Italian populations of chestnut were analyzed. Multivariate analysis and spatial autocorrelation analysis showed two clinal variations, one in a west–east direction, the other in a north–south direction. There was a nonrandom spatial pattern of at least three alleles and a marked heterogeneity among populations of many others. An explanation is proposed in terms of migration flow for the majority of the polymorphisms and of selection for the three autocorrelated alleles. However, anthropic interferences may also be important. Key words: chestnut, electrophoresis, spatial autocorrelation, correspondence analysis, genetic boundaries, discriminant analysis.
