Yellow mosaic disease (YMD) caused by several begomoviruses is one of the major constraints over a dozen leguminous crops worldwide, particularly in Asian and Southeast countries. The present study aimed to investigate distribution, diversity prevalence associated with YMD hosts five agro-climatic zones India, assess extent their geographical presence develop location crop-specific distribution maps. One hundred seventy-four plant samples were tested from 32 locations India detect YMD-causing viruses. Additionally, publicly available data incorporated into this provide comprehensive overview India. This resulted 581 reports on DNA-A component representing 119 locations, which also utilized depict viruses map In study, 117 full-length 103 DNA-B components successfully characterized, detected mungbean yellow virus (MYMIV), (MYMV), horsegram collected samples. Phylogenetic analysis isolates these species showed no differentiation based Diversity indices revealed abundance (55.9%) dominance (0.56) MYMIV across locations. These findings hold significant implications for legume researchers, offering insights geographic distribution. Furthermore, different will help researchers developing zone-specific YMD-resistant cultivars would facilitate effective management options.
