"The induction of mutation by the use of chemical mutagens is a refined technique which is now a days widely used in mutation breeding programmes. Mutation research cannot only be used for understanding the mechanism of mutation and basic aspects of the life phenomena but can also be utilized in developing a larger number of genotypes. The present book Chemical Mutagenesis highlights the mutagenic effect of chemical mutagens on cluster bean."
