Red gram(Cajanus cajan(L.)Millsp.exhibits a wide range of variation in its morphological features.The information available on the pattern of inheritance of different characters is very meagre.Dave (1934). Shaw(1936)and Sen et al.(1968)have reported the inheritance of plant habit and pod colours in red gram.The inheritance of a few characters is reported in this article using induced mutants of red gram as one of the parents in crosses.
