. Induced mutation rate of barley esterase loci has been estimated. Results suggested that about 3% of investigated M1 spikes had seeds which gave rise to M2 seedlings mutated in one of four esterase loci. M1 plants were obtained after chemical treatment of seeds from two spring barley cultivars Aramir and Bielik. The majority of mutants were reconfirmed in the M3 generation.
