Abstract |
Sunflower [Helianthus annus L.] is an annual plant belongs to the compositae (Asteraceae) family. During recent studies, the seed of sunflower varieties “Composite (Modern)”; and “LSFH-171” were treated with different concentrations of chemical mutagens (0.02%,0.04%,0.06% for EMS and 2 m M, 4 m M , 6 m M for AZ). It was found that both varieties of sunflower responded differentially to EMS and Sodium Azide treatments in respect of seed germination. Keyword - Mutation, EMS, AZ, Germination. | |||||||||
