Study on yield and yield components of chickpea lines in winter cultivation

This study was conducted during 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 growing seasons at Shirvan ‎Agricultural Research Station, to evaluate the performance of eight winter chickpea seed lines. ‎The experiment conducted in randomized complete block design with four replications. During ‎the growing season, date of flowering, plant height, number of pod per plant, number of seed ‎per pod and date of maturity were recorded. After harvesting, 100 seed weight and seed yield ‎were measured. There were significant yield differences between genotypes. Combined analyses ‎showed that line SEL 93TH 24477 with 958.4 kg/ha had the highest seed yield mean. The line ‎ILC 8262 with 524.1 kg/ha had the lowest seed yield. ‎
