Genetic variability and association of agronomic traits of chickpea
Автор:Assefa Amare Год: 2014 Издание:LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Страниц: 76 ISBN: 9783659574276 Information on the extent and pattern of genetic variability in a population, interrelationship among different agronomic characters and knowledge of the naturally occurring diversity are essential to design breeding strategies in crop improvement. To generate such information 12 types of chickpea genotypes were tested in randomized complete block design under irrigation condition at Maichew Agricultural Technical and Vocational Educational and Training College. The collected data subjected to the analysis of variance and phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variations, heritability in the broad sense and genetic advance, genotypic and phenotypic correlations and path analysis, cluster analysis; genetic divergence analysis, principal component analysis and diversity index analysis was computed.
