Genetic studies on yield traits of late sown elite kabuli chickpea lines

Present study was carried out to assess the genetic variability and correlation for yield its contributing traits using 89 elite lines of kabuli during rabi 2018-19. Analysis variance revealed, significant differences among all indicated that presence sufficient amount lines. High GCV% PCV % accounted seed per plant followed by stem height at initiation first flower, number effective pods plant, total biological plant. heritability coupled with high advance as percentage mean noted flower Selection line had more than 25 cm viz. FLIP12-278C, FLIP12-161C, JGK-2018-5, ICCV181309 ICCV181305, would be suitable mechanical harvesting. Seed showed highly positive association , harvest index, 100 weight while but negative days pod 50% flowering initiation. Lines identified having maximum weight, JGK-2018-1, JGK-2018-2, JGK-2018-3,JGK-2018-4, RVSVT-K-105, RVSVT-K-110 ICCV181307.The diverse promising could used in chickpea breeding programme improved nutritional foodsecurity.
