Global impact of mutation-derived varieties
TL;DR: Induced mutations will continue to have an increasing role in creating crop varieties with traits such as modified oil, protein and starch quality, enhanced uptake of specific metals, deeper rooting system, and resistance to drought, diseases and salinity as a major component of the environmentally sustainable agriculture.
Book ChapterDOI
Mutations affecting nodulation in grain legumes and their potential in sustainable cropping systems
TL;DR: The importance of nodulation mutants in basic studies on plant-microbe symbiotic interactions, nitrogen fixation and breeding of cultivars with higher yield and nitrogen fixation rate are examined.
Oilseed cultivars developed from induced mutations and mutations affecting fatty acid composition
TL;DR: One hundred and sixty-three cultivars of annual oilseed crops, developed using induced mutations, have been officially approved and released forcultivation in 26 countries and new cultivars having altered fatty acid composition have been released in rapeseed, sunflower and linseed.

Grain legume cultivars derived from induced mutations, and mutations affecting nodulation
TL;DR: Besides the development of new cultivars, a large number ofinduced mutants that show altered nodulation pattern have been isolated in grain legumes and have made a significant contribution in basic studies on host-symbiont interactions and towards cloning of plantgenes related to symbiosis and nitrogen fixation.
