To increase the utilization of seed meal and to improve the feed palatability it is necessary to develop low glucosinolate mustard lines. The present study was intended to develop low glucosinolate varieties in B.juncea through evaluation of variability in total glucosinolate among parental and F2 population. Crosses between NRCHB101×PDZ-1, NRCHB101×RLC-3, NRCHB101×HEERA, DRMR150-35×PDZ-1, DRMR150-35×RLC-3 and NRCHB101×HEERA generated 252 F2 populations. These F2 populations showed the frequency of distribution of total glucosinolate to range from18 µmol/g to 168 µmol/g which is out of the range of parental lines. Clustering of all the progenies derived from the crosses showed considerable diversity in their total glucosinolate content. 8 Lines derived from crosses DRMR150-35×PDZ-1 and NRCHB101× RLC-3 having total glucosinolate content less than 30 µmol/g were reconfirmed by molecular markers.
