Abstract

This research is a regional yield trial study within the scope of the national project carried out as a part of breeding
studies. In this study, advanced chickpea genotypes and registered varieties are tested at different locations and the results
of Adana location are discussed in this study. The experiment was conducted in 2023 to determine yield, morphological
characteristics and quality values in winter sowing under Eastern Mediterranean ecological conditions. The experiment
was set up in a randomized block design with four replications. In the study, plant height, flowering time, grain yield,
hundred grain weight and quality parameters of the varieties were analyzed. According to the results, plant height of the
varieties varied between 46,5-59,8 cm; Urfa GAP-3 genotype was the shortest and Adana-5 genotype was the tallest.
Flowering time varied between 68,3-77,3 days; Aksu chickpea variety was the earliest and Diyarbakır-2 genotype was the
latest. Hundred grain weight values varied between 38,8-49,3 g (Hasanbey-Adana-1 genotypes, respectively). Grain yield
ranged between 129,5-316,0 kg/da from Adana-1 genotype and Hasanbey chickpea varieties, respectively. According
to the data obtained at the end of the research, Hasanbey, Ubet, UrfaGAP-1, Aksu, and UrfaGAP-1 genotypes, which
have the highest values in terms of grain yield, can be recommended for the region. However, in order to make a better
decision, it should be supported by more long-term and detailed agronomic studies.
