Abstract


In a study of induced mutagenesis with two varieties of Cajanus cejan, the effectiveness and efficiency of two mutagens were estimated. Gamma rays were found to be more effective than DES in Inducing both chlorophyll and viable mutations. Gamma rays ware more efficient then DES in inducing chlorophyll and viable mutants when estimeted on the basis of lethality in SA-1. DES was more afficient than gamma rays in both the varieties when estimated on injury basis in indusing viable and chlorophyll mutants.
