Studies on the Effect of Gamma Rays on Trigonella foenum-graecum L

S. S. Raghuvanshi, A. K. Singh

Abstract

Dry seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum were irradiated at 10 to 60 KR. Germination percentage, rate of growth, pollen fertility and seed setting were investigated in M1. Chromosomal aberration and chromosomal mosacism were noted at 40 KR. Lethals, steriles, semisteriles, dwarfs and some promising variants were isolated in M2.
