Abstract

Ten new mutants, affecting leaflet number, shape and size, foliage colour, seed fertility and pod shape and size have been described in Cicer arietinum. The mutants with double flowers and inflated pods, with narrow leaves, with dirty green foliage and with spatulate leaflets were monogenically recessive to the corresponding normal condition.
