Confirmation of hybridity is essential to exclude selfed plants in plant breeding programmes. The morphological markers for confirmation of hybridity in chickpea are unavailable in closely related germplasm and these results in ambiguity in identification of true hybrids. In present study, cold tolerant parent ICC-16349 (donor) and cold susceptible parent GPF-2 (recipient) were crossed to generate 80 putative hybrids.

Chickpea wilt caused by F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceri is one of the most important seed and soil-borne disease in India. The study on association of the pathogen with chickpea seeds showed that the viable mycelium fragments, micro and macro-conidia of the pathogen were present on the seed surface of all susceptible and two resistant varieties/ germplasms in seed washing test. The pathogen was recovered from the untreated and sodium hypochlorite treated seeds of all susceptible varieties/ germplasms in the range of 10.67– 18.67 and 5.33–11.
