Volume : I, Issue : VII, August - 2011 Induced Variation in Quantitative traits due to Chemical mutagen (Hydrazine Hydrate) treatment in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.). Alka and Samiullah Khan Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Effect of chemical mutagen in lentil var. K-75 and L-4076 were exposed to
hydrazine hydrate (HZ). Seeds of both varieties of lentil were subjected to different
concentrations 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03% and 0.04% of HZ. Both varieties were
evaluated for days to flowering, days to maturity, plant height, pods per plant, 100-
seeds weight and total plant yield. Both the parental varieties (K-75 and L-4076)
differed significantly between themselves for both percentage seed germination,
seedling height and all the characters for HZ treatments. Variances among
treatments (four doses of mutagen + one control) were also significantly high. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Alka and Samiullah Khan, (2011).
