Among the pulse crops, it stands first and has a great biological value. Looking at the immense applications of chickpea, the improvement in its yield potential and protein quality has become necessary. The present programme has been formulated for getting desirable plant types carrying beneficial alterations in plant habit, maturity characters, high yielding traits and increased level of seed proteins, in different mutant lines of that plant. For the present mutation breeding programme, BDN 9-3 and PG-5 cultivars of chickpea were used for induction of the mutations. By using different concentrations of two chemical mutagens EMS and SA mutations were induced in chickpea. The programme of mutation breeding was spread over three generations, viz.

Phytochemical analysis reveals the presence of tannins in all the three extracts (Aqueous, ethanolic and N-hexane), while. flavonoids, alkaloids and Saponins were only present in the Aqueous and ethanolic extracts. The leaves extracts were screened for antibacterial activity by agar well diffusion method, employing five different extracts concentrations (100mg/ml, 80mg/ml, 60mg/ml, 40mg/ml and 20mg/ml). The aqueous extracts had a mean activity of 11.50±0.70mm, 7.50±0.70mm and 8.5±0.70mm for S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa respectively. The ethanol extracts had a mean activity of 12.00±1.41mm, 10.00±1.41mm and 8.00±1.21mm for S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa respectively, while the N-hexane extracts exert no any activity.

In case of SA treatments, an increasing trend with increasing concentrations was observable in both the cultivars of chickpea in M2 and M3 generations as regards days to flowering. The frequency of viable mutant showed the highest value at the 0.10% EMS and 0.02% SA concentration in both the cultivars of chickpea. Most of the viable mutants have been observed as true breeding in the subsequent M3 generation. They can be very well utilized on a commercial scale in view of the varied positive attributes carried by them.

The cross of two mutants can occasionally break undesired pleiotropic effect and valuable transgressions in other features can be achieved. Since majority of point mutations are recessive, the search for deviating phenotypes does not begin until the M 2 generation. The determination as to whether a detected variant is a mutant or non-heritable modification can only take place in M 2 generation after testing its progeny. Datta (1994) has indicated the utility of mutation technique in producing large number of new promising varieties in different ornamentals like chrysanthemums and roses. . The major objective in employing induced mutations has been to increase variability within shortest possible period and to develop some such genotypes which could carry attributes of immense economic value.

The data regarding soluble seed protein content revealed substantial variability in all the germplasm lines and also different viable and micro mutants of both the cultivars of chickpea. Among 11 germplasm lines, the highest values for soluble seed protein content were recorded in chaffa and BG-256. The viable mutants in both the cultivars showed the variability in soluble seed protein content. In BDN 9-3, the highest value was observed in large leaf mutant while in PG-5, the late maturing mutant indicated highest value for soluble seed content. Thus, from the above observation, it can be said that mutagenic treatments tried in the present study have very much succeeded including genetic variability with significance alterations in growth and metabolism of the plant body. The result obtained decisively demonstrated the effective potential of the induced mutational approach in the genetic improvement of chickpea and recovering superior mutant types to helps obtain better desirable traits.

Elongated pod mutant was recorded only in BDN 9-3, in this mutant, the pods were found to be slightly elongated in shape as compared to control. The seeds of this mutant were larger, elongated and more weighted than the control.
