ECHEVARRIA, Anayza et al. Agronomic performance of cultivars of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), under conditions of the municipality Los Palacios, Pinar del Río. cultrop [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.3, pp. 101-106. ISSN 0258-5936.

A study on the behavior of five lines of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), from the Dry Areas Research Institute (ICARDA), (Syrian Arab Republic), for Los Palacios´s municipality conditions was carried out. Sowing was done in December of 2008. A randomized block experimental design with three replications using three cuban varieties as control treatments was employed. The plant height (cm), number of branches/plant, number of sheaths/plant, filled and empty sheaths/plant, 100-grain weight (g), crop yield (t.ha^-1) and disease incidence (%) were evaluated. The obtained values were analyzed using a simple ANOVA and means were compared by Tukey’s test. The results indicated that all lines responded to the edaphoclimatic conditions of the site. Nevertheless, lines 1 and 3 showed the best behavior in all evaluated characters even the yield, which exceeded 2 t.ha^-1. Also they were highly resistant to disease caused by Fusarium sp
