Abstract
Radiation-induced mutants of groundnut cv. Spanish Improved showing di stinct morphological differences and the parent were screened for RAPD variability. The analysis revealed characteristic band differences am ong the 12 mutants and the parent. The polymorphic RAPD bands were dom inant in the F-1 and segregated in a Mendelian fashion in the F-2. The RAPD technique brought out greater genome variability than RFLP.
