Abstract

Stability parameters were studied during rabi seasons 2007–08, 2008–09 and 2009–10 among seventeen genotypes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) for seed yield and its components. The objective of this study was to explore the effect of genotype (G) and genotype × environment interaction (GE) on grain yield. The development of genotypes, which can be adapted to a wide range of diversified environment, is the ultimate goal of plant breeders in a crop improvement program. Genotype GNG 469 was the most stable for seed yield/plant. Genotypes were found stable for yield and yield contributing traits viz., number of seeds/pod (SCS3, 90201, C81 and PBG1), number of pods/plant (95909, 90201) and 100 seed weight (C17, SCS3). The study validated that the seeds/pod, 100 seed weight and plant height were important characters for improvement of seed yield/plant in chickpea.
