Despite the best efforts for improving the green gram varieties, the yield potential of this crop
remains low owing to both biotic and abiotic factors. The major constraints are inherently low …

The experiment was conducted in the research area of the Department of Plant Breeding
and Genetics, University of Agriculture Faisalabad, during spring season 2010. The …

Genetic variation has led to an increase in the quantitative traits of crops. The variability on
genome is induced by mutation, which enhances the productivity. We evaluated variability …

Mutation breeding has played a crucial role to enhance the world food security, hence new
crop varieties induced by the utilization of various mutagens have contributed to the …

Tuber of two varieties of potato named Silana and Daimont were irradiated with control, 10
and 30 Gy of gamma rays before planting to investigate its effects on morphological …

Micro and macro-mutants play an important role to assess the dose/concentration of
mutagens. In the present investigation, some of the chlorophyll mutants were observed in …

The genetic diversity study was conducted in 24 lentil genotypes at Govind Ballabh Pant
University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand, India. In the present …

Mutagenesis is a well-known technique for introducing new variants into crop plants. In the
present study, M2 populations were generated in the cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) …

Abstract Purpose: Blackgram (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper) possesses natural flower dropping
character with self-pollination, which was highly challenging to create variability through …

Genetic variation among four mutants with parent of black gram (high seed protein, tall,
bushy, and dwarf mutants) was investigated. The mutants were generated with physical …
