Several varieties were tested for their response to nitrogen fertilization, and seven varieties were chosen for hybridization to generate all possible combinations. It was found that nitrogen fertilization up to 60 kg/ha failed to increase either the grain yield or the protein content of mungbean varieties. Heterosis was observed for grain yield, protein content, number of pods per plant, length of pods, number of seeds per plant and days to flowering in the F1 hybrids. Segregation for some of these characters was observed in F2 and F3 crosses grown in 1980
