Abstract
Seeds of the three small seeded lentil (Lens culinaris Medik. var. microsperma) varieties viz. P-38, P=577 and LL=19 were irradiated with 100 Gy, 200 Gy and 300 Gy doses of gamma rays. The effectiveness and efficiency of gamma rays was higher at low dose levels and gradually decreased with increase in the dose of gamma rays. However the effectiveness of gamma rays (Calculated on the basis of M2 seedlings) in cv. P-577 was increase with increase in the radiation dose. The radiation treatment of 200Gy and 300 Gy were moderately effective in P-38 and P-577 and least effective in LL-19.
