Abstract:
An experiment was carried out at Vegetable block, College of Horticulture, Anantharajupeta, Andhra Pradesh during 2019 with the elite mutant lines of the gamma irradiated population of the field bean variety TFB-2 to study the yield, quality and physiological parameters. The results revealed that M2.10 observed a higher rate of photosynthesis. The mutant line M2.21 recorded highest SCMR values. The better performance for 100 seed weight was recorded by the mutant line M2.20. The mutant line M2.24 is better performer for seed yield per plant. The intercellular CO₂ was noted to be highest in M2.18 whereas the rate of transpiration was highest in M2.32. Mutant line M2.28 recorded the highest leaf temperature and stomatal conductance with the highest protein content.
