Stomatal index, length ,breadth and area of stomata of T. cordifolia without treatment is highest at the apex The stomatal index, Stomatal frequency, length ,breadth and area of stomata varied with different regions and concentration of mutagens. It was concluded that effect of mutagens decreases the Stomatal Index, length, width and area of the stomata.
