Induction of Mutation in Rough Lemon (Citrus jambhiri Lush.) Using Gamma Rays

The present investigation was carried out to study variability induced by gamma rays with respect to vegetative characters and LD50 dose in Rough lemon. Rough lemon seeds were gamma irradiated at doses of 0, 4, 6 and 8 kr along with control. Seed germination decreased with increasing dose of gamma r...
