Abstract
A sterile plant of Trigonella foenum-graecum having bushy habit was isolated from C1 colchiploids in late season. This plant was diploid as revealed by petal tip squashes and its anthers contained disintegrated sporogenous tissue indicating male sterility. Gynoecium was normal. Results of efforts of artificial pollination and possible mutagenic effects of colchicine have been discussed.
