Development of high yielded genotypes more demand to fill the gap between increasing population and mungbean pulses production. Vigna radiata is an economically important legume crop of Pakistan/World. Due to narrow genetic variability, conventional breeding methods are not contributing much to the improvement of this crop. Mutation breeding techniques have been proved useful in obtaining novel traits and creating genetic variability for yield improvement and quality traitsin. The estimated results were concluded that emergence rate and plant height at first pod maturity had positive direct...

Thirty inbreeding lines of Zea mays were screened in a glasshouse. Eight best performing lines were selected based on nine traits screened to cross with testers. The resulting F1 hybrids were screened in the field for their performance. Root and shoot length ratio, fresh shoot weight, dry root weight, and dry shoot weight were the most important traits to be used as criteria in selecting drought tolerance maize genotypes. Principal component analysis suggested that K55TMS, OH3A54, W187R, A556, WA3748, WM13RA and A545 performed the best under normal and drought conditions. High heritability...
