Abstract
The present study was conducted to the estimation of correlation analysis for quantitative traits in chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) in the field of the department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Pakistan during the crop season 2008-2009. Correlation studies showed that biomass per plant, number of pods per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of seeds per pod and 100-seed weight were positive and significant at genotypic level but positive and highly significant at phenotypic level. Whereas, days taken to flowering, days taken to maturity, primary branches per plant and secondary branches per plant were positively correlated with the grain yield per plant at genotypic and phenotypic levels. Plant height was negative and non-significantly correlated with grain yield per plant at both genotypic and phenotypic levels.
