Abstract
Thirty genotypes of chickpea evaluated to know the genetic divergence for grain yield and yield contributing traits. Significant differences among the genotypes were observed for all the characters studied. Genotypes were grouped in to nine clusters based on D2 values. Cluster III and IX were more divergent. Genotype GNG 2000 formed mono genotypic cluster with earliest flowering and maturity. Pods per plant contributed most in genetic divergence followed by 100- seed weight and Days to 50% flowering. The diverse genotypes such as GNG 2000, GNG 1581, GNG 469, CSG 8962, GNG 1999, GNG 2004, GNG 2010 can be used in breeding programme to generate the spectrum of variability.
