Abstract :This research was conducted to determine the effects of different Gamma (15, 30, 60 and 80 kr.) rays doses on some characters of \\\"Yunus-90\\\" dwarf dry bean in 1992 and 1993 years at Konya ecological conditions. In M₁ generation plant height, branch number, pod number per plant, and bean number per pod were measured or counted or weighted on M₁ generally. The effects of the different Gamma rays doses on grain yield per plant and some morphological characters were significant. The highest grain yield per plant was obtained from Control, Gamma-15 and Gamma-30 doses (10.22 g/plant, 10.09 g/plant, 9.71 g/plant).
