Abstract
Seeds and seedlings of Jubaojinguan and Maofen802 were treated with colchicines.The results indicated that the highest induction rate of Jubaojinguan and Maofen802 were 26.7%and 30% with optimum treatment combination of 0.4%/12h and treating the seeds,46.7% and 50% with optimum treatment combination of 0.03%/8h and treating the seedlings.The chromosome number of the mutated tomato(2n=4x=48) was twice that of the control.In addition,the leaf length,width and area were larger ahd the leaf index was smaller than those of the diploid plants.
