Abstract
An attempt has been made to evaluate quantitative characters viz., fertile branches per plant, pods per plant and total plant yield in M2 and M3 generations following mutagenesis with EMS (ethylmethane sulphonate) and SA (sodium azide) in mungbean {Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek} var. Pusa Baisakhi. The number of fertile branches per plant, pods per plant and yield increased significantly after mutagenic treatments. The induced genetic variability was higher in treated populations than the control.
