Abstract

Effectiveness is a measure of gene mutation in relation to dose and efficiency is a phrase used to evaluate biological effects in plants such as mortality, damage, and sterility. In the present investigation, EMS treatment was found to be most effective mutagen in Coriandrum sativum L. as compared to Gamma rays. The order of effectiveness and efficiency of the mutagens were EMS > GR. The decrease in effectiveness with increasing concentrations of mutagens produced the biological damage like lethality and pollen sterility.
