Effect of Irradiation with Thermal Neutrons on Control and Vernalised Seeds of Mustard
Abstract
SynopsisIrradiation of seed caused increased mortality of seedlings and diminution in lengths of their hypocotyls and roots. It did not destroy the effect of vernalization. Only 22 mutants were found in 1331 F3 progeny of irradiated seed.
