Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study aimed to induce genetic variability in Davana through gamma rays and identify superior mutants for essential oil content (EOC) and Davanone was conducted at CSIR-Central Institute on Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, Research Center, Bangalore. METHODS: The seeds of the cultivar 'Bangalore local' were exposed to 100-500 Gy gamma rays, and 293 Gy was identified as the LD50. RESULTS: Significant...
