VARIABILITY PARAMETERS IN CHICKPEA (Cicer arietinum L.)

Abstract

                                Twenty one diverse varieties of chickpea were evaluated for the estimation of different variability parameters in two environments. Genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) ranged from 1.53 for days to maturity to, 27.67 for grain yield per plant in E, and 2.14 for days to maturity to 37.40 for grain yield per plant in E The estimates of heritability were high for all the characters studied. High genetic advance as per cent of mean coupled with high heritability ware recorded for grain yield per plant, number of pods per plant and number of primary branches per plant.
