The anatomical characteristics were studied of one X-ray induced macromutant, 'Undulating stem'. This true-breeding mutant produces only primary phloic fibres. The secondary phloic fibres, which are the derivatives of vascular cambium, are found lacking, though there is formation of secondary phloem
Protoplasts were isolated from cotyledon, hypocotyl and mesophyll cells of Corchorus capsularis L., a major fibre crop, by one step enzyme digestion method. They were further cultured successfully on modified KM-8p (Kao and Michayluk, 1975) medium to form microcalli. The required cultural conditions
Reproductive effort (RE) of a day-length neutral mutant TCJ-5, its parent, and two other cultivars of jute (Corchorus capsularis) was estimated as reproductive biomass/aerial biomass. Plant height at flowering and aerial biomass were significantly higher in the mutant, while the reproductive biomass
