Abstract
Ensuring food security for the rapidly increasing population and changing climatic scenarios are requisites for exploiting the genetic divergence of food crops. A study was undertaken to sort out an early maturing chickpea variety for fitting easily between rice-rice cropping systems in the Eastern Indo-Gangetic Plain of Bangladesh. The trial was comprised of eight elite lines of chickpea and executed at various localities in Bangladesh from 2014- 15 to 2017-18. The result explored the chickpea genotype, BARI Chola-11 remained superior to the rest of the elite genotypes for having a short maturity period (100-106 days), and lesser days to 50% flowering (47- 55 days). The same genotype was recorded to have robust vegetative and reproductive yield attributes including plant height (49-57 cm), podsplant-1 (37-50), and optimum 100 seed weight (19.5-20.6 g). Owing to better yield attributes, BARI Chola-11 resulted in the maximum seed yield (1200-1500 kg ha-1) of chickpea and might be recommended for general adoption in the region for boosting nutritional security status through improved productivity under changing climate.
