Abstract
Electrophoretically separated peroxidase isozymes and soluble seed protein profiles of some of the viable mutants of green gram in theM4 generation have revealed qualitative and quantitative variations from the parental line. Some of the mutants exhibited increased or decreased soluble protein bands according to the altered genetic architecture. The study of the similarity index of the soluble seed protein profiles indicated varying degrees of homology ranging from 40 to 83% among the parental line and mutants.
