ABSTRACT
The present investigation was conducted during the Kharif season of 2013, seeds of black gram (Vingo mungo (L.) Hepper) variety VBN 4 and ACM 07002 were exposed to gamma rays doses at 200, 250, 300 and 350 Gy and EMS (Ethyl Methane Sulphonate) doses at 20, 30 and 40 mM. The high mutagenic effectiveness of chlorophyll mutants was observed at 300 Gy (gamma ray), 40 mM (EMS) doses in both VBN 4 and ACM 07002. The high mutagenic effectiveness of viable mutants was recorded in 350 Gy in M2 seedling basis in VBN 4, 300 Gy in ACM 07002 (gamma ray) and 40 mM (EMS) in both VBN 4 and ACM 07002. The effectiveness of chlorophyll and viable mutants were less in EMS than the gamma rays in M2 seedling basis. The mutagenic effectiveness was high in higher doses and less in low doses.
Key words: Black gram, VBN 4, ACM 07002, Gamma ray, EMS, Chlorophyll and viable mutants.
