Abstract
The effect of Ethyl Methane Sulphonate (EMS) was studied on seed germination and seeding injury in Chickpe a (Cicer arietinum L.) Var. Virat. In this investigation the seeds of the var. V irat were treated by different concentrations of the EMS (12mM, 16 mM and 20mM). The percentages of seed germination were studied on the 7 th day, the seed ge rmination was analyze d and the percent seed germination was calculated. Seedling height was re corded on the 10 th day only in the germinating seeds. Reduction in the mean seedling length of the treate d seedling as compared to the control was regarded as seedling injury and expresse d as percentage . Result showe d that the percentage of seed germination decreased and seedling injury increased with increasing concentrations of EMS.
