A field trial of 121 mutant lines of isabgol was conducted to evaluate the productivity and quality of isabgol in term of seed yield and biochemical parameters. All the mutant lines exhibited a wide range of variability in biochemical parameters as well as seed yield. The mutant lines viz; RIM-4500-53, RIM-2-1000-40, RIM-2-100-48, RIM-2-900-41, RIM-2-700-43 and RIM-89-800-35 were found to be the best in term of seed yield with all other biochemical parameters likes total chlorophyll content, protein, husk, sugar and swelling percent studied.
