| Abstract/Description: | A mini-core collection consists of a limited set of accessions derived from an existing collection, chosen to represent the genetic spectrum in the collection, and provides the user a set of genetically and ecologically distinct accessions. The evaluation of 210 mini-core germplasm accessions revealed considerable variation among accessions for all the traits studied. This collection was evaluated for nine qualitative characters. In Asia, India accounted for 83 accessions (39.5%) in the mini-core collection followed by Iran 53 accessions (25.2%). Ethiopia, which is the secondary centre of diversity for chickpea, accounted for only 14 (6.6%) accessions in the mini-core collection. In this study most of the germplasm were semi-spreading type, pink flower, medium seed size, brown seed colour, rough seed surface and desi type of seed shape. These accessions were found promising for qualitative traits will be utilized in chickpea quality improvement. |
