Abstract

An experiment was conducted for morphological and molecular characterization of induced mutants. From both morphological and molecular analysis, it was revealed that TMV 2 and its mutant NLM were diverse and placed in different cluster, same holds good for DER and its mutants but for VL 1 and its mutants, there is lack of relationship between morphological and molecular diversity and RAPD failed to differentiate different botanical types of groundnut.

Keywords

Groundnut, Mutants, Molecular Diversity, RAPD and TMV-2.
