Abstract

                                Clitoria ternatea Linn is a hardy pasture legume. It bears typical clitorious flowers which are either blue or white. However, during a plant survey, a plant type with all the five petals which are broad was identified. The inheritance of the broad shaped petals and their colour was studied and it was found to segregate in a typical dihybrid ratio of 9:3:3:1. Test cross of the Fi with the double recessive also confirmed the above results

Key words : Blue pea, Clitoria ternatea, Flower Colour; Petal shape
