Abstract:

All the 159 genotypes were characterized and grouped into different classes on the basis of observations recorded for different qualitative and quantitative traits as per the guidelines for the conduct of test for Distinctiveness, Uniformity and Stability on chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) The varietal characterization, varietal identification and genetic purity assessment is utmost important for field functionaries, Certification Officers, Seed Production Officers and Seed Growers for maintaining quality of the seed. These were helpful in genetic purity and DUS testing in seed certification process. The results of the present study clearly indicated that the genotypes of chickpea can be distinguished and identified by plant and seed morphological characters. These differences in morphological traits were useful in identification of individual chickpea genotypes.
