Assessment of Genetic Variability and Different Character Association in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L

In the study, 102 chickpea germplasm showed expansive range of variation for miscellaneous characters judged during Rabi 2017-18 in addition to BG 372, Udai and Pant G 186 as checks varieties. The experiment was administered in Augmented Block Design at Agronomy Research Farm of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj), Ayodhya (U.P.). The observations were written on 11 quantitative characters namely., days to 50 per cent blooming, days to maturity, basic branches per plant, subordinate branches per plant, plant climax (cm), pods per plant, seeds per pod, organic yield per plant (g), seed yield per plant (g), harvest index (%) and 100-beginning weight (g). After resolving the data consumer research of each characters genotypes disclosed a wide range of results Genotypes GJG 1416 understood by BG 256, GJG 1416, PhuleG0819, IPC 2011-141 and IPC 1014 produced larger seed yield per plant and these genotypes constituted the top meaningful group for these traits..On added hand genotypes PDG 84-16, IPC 1014, H06-6, GJG 1401, GJG 1403 and JG2016-44 for early adulthood;; BG 256, GJG 1209, GJG 1401, GJG 1416 and JG 11 were identified for extreme number of pods per plant; GJG 1416, GJG 1001, BG 256, RS 2011-06 and BG 3027 were identified for insolent seed capacity; IPC 1014, PhuleG0805 and IPC 2010-134 for harvest index were found hopeful which concede possibility be used as potential contributors for the traits in chickpea bettering programme. Seed yield per plant exhibited definite and highly meaningful correlations accompanying secondary branches per plant, pods per plant, sources per pod, biological yield per plant, harvest index and 100-children weight. The definite significant equivalences of seed yield per plant were establish with basic branches per plant and non-important with plant climax. It exhibited negative non-important association accompanying days to 50 per cent blooming and days to maturity.
