High genetic variability for grain yield traits indicates potential for breeding improvements in Desi chickpea.
Key findings showed strong correlations between grain yield and traits like total effective pods and seed index.
The study utilized 40 genotypes of Desi chickpea to assess genetic variability and established phenotypic correlations.
Effective breeding for grain yield could be achieved by directly selecting traits that exhibit strong positive correlations.
