The control. The seeds of two bambara groundnut varieties were treated with Ethyl methane sulphonate having concentration of (0.1%,0.2%,0.3%,0.4%,0.5%) after treatment M1 seeds were sown along with the control . M1 seeds were harvested with individual plants and planted plant to progeny rows in M2 generation and in M2 generation high yielding and other desirable characters like resistant were selected and forwarded to M3 generation having 110 families of SB-42 and 40 families of S-165A, in M3 generation families performed well for yield and other characters were subjected for protein and methionine content.
