ABSTRACT
Seed treatment with gamma rays, EMS, NG and their combinations in two mungbean
Keywords genotypes, BKG-1 and OUM 11-5, significantly reduced germination, seedling growth

pollen and seed sterility in M1 showed positive association with M2 macro-mutation
frequencies and M2 population variance. Such a relationship may be useful for
effective selection of mutagenic populations at even M1 generation to achieve wider
genetic variability in M2 and later generations.
