In the present study, twenty putative bearing mutants of Kinnow mandarin developed from different oncentration (0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.5%) of ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) were evaluated for phenological, yield and quality traits and compared with the wild type (WT). Plant height as compared to WT was stimulated by almost 10% in the mutants E-2 and E-5 developed from the lower doses of 0.05% EMS, while it was curtailed by 25% in the mutants E-16 and E-17 developed from higher dosimetry of 0.5% EMS. The inhibited plant however, did not affect the fruiting intensity. A dose-dependent decrease in fruit weight varying from 22.04 to 41.50% was noticed in the mutants between E-1 (0.05%) to E-15 (0.2%). Mutants E-1 and E-16 developed from the two contrasting doses of EMS had fruits with thicker peel similar to WT. The number of seeds/fruit was significantly reduced in the putative mutants E-16 and E-19 ( Not Available |
