Seeds of a local cultivar of Vicia faba were treated with single and combined applications of 0.75 diethyl sulfate (DES) and 10 kR of gamma rays. Reduced germination, seedling growth, plant height, number of branches, pods, seeds/pod, test weight, survival percentage and seed yield were recorded in the mutagenic treatments in addition to increased pollen sterility and delayed maturity. Application of gamma rays both singly and in combination with DES induced more severe effects than the application of DES alone. In fact, the 0.75 concentration of DES had a slight promoting effect on some growth parameters
