ABSTRACT

The present experimental work has been done on Vigna radiata, Cultivar Naval. The effects of Chemicals and Physical Mutagens were studied on seedling development. The EMS, SA and Gamma Radiation affected the seedling growth at the time of development on its root and shoot. Seeds were treated with various concentrations of Chemical Mutagens and Gamma Radiation. The result showed variation in Root and Shoot Length, Vigour index (Length, Mass), Dry weight as compared to control.

Key words : EMS, Gamma Irradiation, Growth Parameters, SA.
