Abstract:

In this investigation two different methods using aqueous solutions of colchicine were used to treat F1 tillers from various Triticum durum x Aegilops tauschii crosses in order to artificially induce chromosome doubling. Treatment of crown root region (uproot) was found effective compared to in-situ (tip) method using treatment of apical meristems of F1 tillers at 2-3 tiller stage. The aqueous solution of colchicine was administered at two concentrations viz., 0.05 and 0.075% in both the methods. The 0.05% colchicine solution was found more effective as more doubled seed was obtained.
