Analysis of Gamma Irradiated Potato Genotypes Based on Selected Agronomic Traits

Abstract: The morphological traits of induced potato plants established from irradiated microtubers with Co60 gamma rays led to the identification of solid mutants with linear leaf shape and various chimerical mutants at the M1V1 stage. Potato breeding requires genetic variation of useful traits for crop improvement. The use of induced mutations is highly effective in enhancing genetic variability. The objectives of the study were to determine dose of mutagen and effects of induced mutation on morphological traits in po… Show more

“…The use of gamma-ray irradiation to increase genetic diversity has been tested on several vegetatively propagated plants such as sweet potato (Shin et al 2011), sugarcane (Suhesti et al 2015), and pomelo (Mariana et al 2018). Chepkoech et al (2022) performed gamma-ray irradiation on three potato varieties of micro tubers. They obtained variations in the number of stems, quantity, and weight of tubers at doses of 20 and 30 gray.…”
