Abstract

Seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum and Trigonella corniculata were treated with different concentrations of EMS, MMS and NaN3 to study the effect on steroidal sapogenins production. Enhanced level of both the steroidal sapogenins was observed with all the three chemical mutagens with maximum augmentation in EMS at 0.1 M.
