Abstract

Ninety-four lines of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) landraces were evaluated for thirteen characteristics on Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture in Dicle University in Diyarbakir, Turkey in 2000 season. There was a wide range of variation for all characters, expect seed length. For yield/plant ranged from 4.92 to 15.76 g/plant and the CV% was 24.25%. Yield/plant was correlated positively with plant canopy height, number of branches/plant, pods/plant and seeds/plant, but this characters were non-significantly correlated with seed length, width and roughness, rachis length, width and leaflets width. The high positive correlation was found between seed characteristics and leave characteristics.
