Abstract: The dry seeds (12 % moisture) of local cultivar of proso millet viz. , Vari No.10 was irradiated with six doses of gamma rays viz. , 20 krad, 30 krad, 40 krad, 50 krad, 60 krad and 70 krad at BARC, Trombay, Mumbai. In M2 generation, two early maturing mutants were isolated from 40 krad and 50 krad doses as well as two high yielding mutants were isolated from 20 krad and 60 krad doses. The mutagenic treatments were effective in inducing both qualitative and quantitative characters.
