Yerel Nohut (Cicer arietinum L.) Genotiplerinin Yazlık Ekimde Bazı Özelliklerinin Karekterizasyonu ve Ana Bileşen Analizi

Abstract

A total of 170 different genotypes were studied to evaluate the local chickpea (Cicer arietinum L) populations collected from the Mediterranean, Passage belt and Central Anatolia regions, Adana, Hatay, Osmaniye, Maraş, Mersin, Karaman provinces in breeding studies and to determine some important agronomic and morphological characteristics. Qualitative and quantitative properties of genotypes in early spring sowing were investigated. Morphological characterization studies were carried out according to the definition list published by IPGRI for chickpea and the UPOV feature document of this species. The characteristics of chickpea plant and seed were examined and the differences between these examined characteristics were determined. In this study, when the weights and contribution margins of the characteristics discussed in the first three main components are examined, it is seen that the seed shape and first branch number values on the first main component have the highest values, respectively. When the second main component values were examined, it was determined that the second branch number and the third branch number had the highest values. In the third main component, the values of leaflet width and canopy height were determined as the highest values, respectively. Among the three main components, the determined features emerge as characters that may be important in the differentiation of genotypes.
