Abstract:Seed of pigeonpea variety Kaki were irradiated at Oak Ridge National Laboratories with different doses of gamma rays and neutrons. The effects of both sources of radiation were studied on seed germination, plant growth, and flowering date during the X1 generation, and plant height and number of days to flower on the X2 generation. The results indicate that both sources of radiation reduced seed germination, and plant height, and induced both earliness and lateness in number of days to flower during the X1 gene… Show more
