Summary A comparison was made of the type and frequency of mutational events found in the progeny of tomato plants regenerated after one passage in vitro with those induced by chemical mutagenesis with ethyl methane sulphonate. Several mutants were recovered in the progeny of regenerated and mutagenized plants of two cultivars of tomato. They can be grouped into the following categories: seedling lethality, male sterility, resistance to Verticillium, short stature, change in number of lateral shoots or in leaf shape. The results indicate that the two sources of variability differ in their effect, changing the spectrum and frequency of the mutants as well as, at least in some cases, their pattern of segregation.
