Genetic diversity among induced mutants of grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.)

Introduction Knowledge about genetic diversity is a prerequisite of any breeding programme. Inclusion of diverse parents in hybridisation programmes serves the purpose of combining desirable genes in new recombinations. Mahalanobi’s D statistic (7) is a powerful tool in quantifying the degree of divergence at genotypic level. Several workers have used this method to quantify the degree of diver...

Variation and Association Analysis in Grass Pea (lathyrus Sativus L.)

The study was conducted on 50 landrace populations of grass pea at Adet Research Center, Ethiopia, using Randomised Complete Block Design in three replications to determine morphological variability and character associations. Evaluations were made on plant and yield characters from eight plants tagged randomly from each plot. The data were subjected to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), heritabilit...

Development of low ODAP somaclones of Lathyrus sativus

Lathyrus sativus is a grain legume high in protein (25-30%) that can be grown under limited moisture conditions. However, the Government of India has imposed a ban on its sale because of the association with human neurolathyrism in the population subsisting on it. Over the years, by mutation and conventional breeding, attempts were made to reduce the amount of oxalyl diamino propionic acid (ODA...

Callus Induction and Rhizogenesis in Lathyrus Sativus L

PIWOWARCZYK BARBARA, PINDEL ANNA, MUSZYŃSKA EWA. 2016. Callus Induction and Rhizogenesis in Lathyrus sativus L. Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 64(1): 123–128. Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) is a leguminous plant distinguished by great resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses that can become a valuable source of protein feed in the nearest future. Howev...
