Abstract

The Linum usitatissimum L. var.NDL-2002 has high oil yield potential. The seeds of the variety were exposed to different concentrations (0.02–0.10%) of ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) and sodium azide (SA). Observations on germination, germination inhibition, morphology, plant height, yield parameters, branches per plant, etc. were recorded in M1 generation in control and treated plants. Leaves notching, effect on internodal length were observed and also the more adverse effect of EMS was observed than SA.
