| Study Title | Multi-location field phenotyping of global chickpea germplasm panel for yield and yield-related agronomic traits (2014–2016): Location ICRISAT 2015-16 |
| Description | A set of 2,980 cultivated chickpea genotypes along with six checks (four desi genotypesAnnigeri, G 130, ICCV 10 and JG 11; two kabuli genotypes- KAK2 and L550) were phenotyped using augmented block design in six locations, namely Patancheru (17.5287° N, 78.2667° E), Amlaha (23.1208° N, 76.9038° E), Junagadh (21.5222° N, 70.4579° E), Durgapura (23.5204° N, 87.3119° E), Kanpur (26.4499° N, 80.3319° E), and Sehore (23.2032° N, 77.0844° E) in India for two years (2014-15 and 2015-16). A total of 16 agronomic traits [plant height (PLHT, cm), plant stand (PLST), plant width (PLWD, cm), basal primary branch (BPB), apical primary branch (APB), basal secondary branch (BSB), apical secondary branch (ASB), tertiary branch (TB), days to 50% flowering (DF), days to maturity (DM), flowering duration (FD), pods per plant (PPP), seed per pod (SPD), 100 seed weight (100SW, g), yield per plant (YPP, g), plot yield (PY, kg ha-1 ) were evaluated. |
