Abstract

Lentil seeds (Lens culinaris Medic.) were submited to different irradiation doses of fast neutrons aiming to obtain superior agronomic traits. The alterations observed were restricted to histological modifications in the leaflet epidermis due to the leaflets due to the low irradiation dosages used.
