UTILIZATION OF INDUCED MUTATIONS IN APRICOT BREEDING |
| Author: | V. Balan |
| Abstract:
Physical mutagenesis (the mutagenous agent was 60 Co O,3KR) led to the modification of the vigour of the Comandor standard phenotype, as well as of the 16% level of the refractometrically determined dry substance, of the 12 mg/100 g of vitamin C and of the 2,72 mg/100 g of the carotene in fruit. The maximum level of certain biochemical components of fruits was 20,14 to 20,43 dry substance in 12% of the mutants, 20,21 to 20,42 vitamin C in 5%, and 0,36 to 0,40 mg/100 g carotene in 3% of the mutant populations. | |
