Abstract

Genetic parameters of variability were calculated for seed yield and other seven quantitative characters in 70 genotypes of chickpea. Heritability estimates were high for all characters except plant breadth. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance expressed as % of mean were observed for seed yield and number of pods/plant. Association analysis revealed that seed yield had positive association with all seven characters studied both at genotypic as well as phenotypic level. The selection criteria based on the no. of branches per plant, pod weight and no. of pods/plant will give fruitful results for yield improvement in chickpea
