Crop improvement using classical induced mutagenesis is now well standardized. A large number of new promising varieties in different crops have successfully been developed world wide using both physical and chemical mutagens. Voluminous literature are now available on basic and applied aspects of mutagenesis. Mutation technique has been refined and holds promise of generating a much wider desirable variability than classical breeding. Recent advances in technology combined with classical mutation breeding offers new and exciting challenges for development of new varieties. There was necessary to compile worldwide activities on induced mutagenesis for crop improvement.The book covers both basic and applied aspects of mutation and its impact on different crops like vegetables, pulse, medicinal, edible and non-edible oil, ornamentals etc in different countries. The book is extremely well prepared and contains huge volume of informations accumulated using classical induced mutagenesis on different crops in different countries.
