Abstract
The present investigation was undertaken to know the effect of EMS on groundnut cultivar TMV-7 particularly for M1 generation with special reference to amino acids. The healthy and viable seeds of groundnut cultivar TMV-7 were exposed to different concentrations of EMS. The chemical mutagens were screened against groundnut ranged from 10 to 50mM and sown in the field along with control. The various growth, morphological parameters like percentage of seed germination, survival percentage plant height, number of branches, days taken for flower initiation , total height at time of harvest, root length, number of lateral roots, number of pods per plant and 100 seeds weight were decreased with increasing concentrations of EMS. The amino acid analysis also carried out in control, EMS derived M1 plants grown in field. The amino acid contents were recorded in both positive and negative tendency.
