Abstract

Castor is an important oilseed crop in Andhra Pradesh occupying an area of 6.6 lakh acres. The average yield of this crop is 350 kg per acre and therefore is very low. With a view to improve the yielding ability of this crop several breeding techniques are adopted; mutuation breeding being one of them. Among the various methods employed for inducing mutations, emphasis is laid on pollen irradiation, as it is a simple and effective method. This paper presents an account of pollen irradiation studies on the Ma generation of H.C. 1 castor.
