ABSTRACT
|
The induced mutation through different
gamma irradiation frequencies viz. 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 Gy in
some agronomic traits of five mungbean cultivars was studied for consecutive
three years. A wide range of variability exist in all the characters
except plant height. The genotypic effect on days to flowering, days
to maturity, plant height, number of branches, number of pods and number
of clusters ranged from 43.82. to 44.96 days, 87.60 to 91.75 days, 42.16
to 51.61 cm, 1.83 to 2.07, 16.97 to 21.46 and 4.44 to 5.56 respectively.
Similarly, mutagenic effects on days to 50% flowering, days for maturity,
plant height, number of branches, number of pods and number of clusters
ranged from 44.05 to 45.62 days, 88.62 to 91.83 days, 47.07 to 48.43
cm, 1.62 to 2.00, 17 to 22.30 and 4.53 to 5.50 respectively. The genotype
X dose interaction were highly significant for days to 50% flowering,
maturity, number of branches and clusters and non-significant for plant
height and number of pods
