Broadly the entire chrysanthemum has been divided into two groups-Large flowered and Small flowered. NBRI is
maintaining a living germplasm of more than 250 cultivars collected from all over India and Japan comprising
almost all bloom types and colour which are being used as base line material for further increase of genetic
variability and improvement through indiscriminate intervarietal hybridization, induced mutation and selection.
Extensive work has been done at National Botanical Research Institute, Lucknow, India for the development of
new flower colour/shape mutations in chrysanthemum and has been very successful to develop more than 50 new
chrysanthemum mutant varieties using colchicine and γ-radiation. The genetic constitution of the present day
