Early Flowering and High Yielding Mutants In Ocimum sanctum Linn.

P.N. Nasare,A.D. Choudhary

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Early Flowering and High Yielding Mutants In Ocimum Sanctum Linn. were induced by physical (gamma rays) and chemical mutagens : SA (Sodium azide) and EMS (Ethylmethane sulphonate). The seeds were irradiated with 200,400,600 Gy gamma rays Seeds were also treated with SA (0.001%,0.002%,0.003%) and EMS (0.1%,0.2%,0.4). Population was screened carefully in M2 and M3 generations to isolate the mutants with early flowering and reduced maturation period and high yielding. Early flowering mutants were recorded in the M2 and M3 generation. The physical mutagen (gamma rays), as well as both chemical mutagens (SA and EMS) were found to induce high yielding mutants.
