Induction and inheritance of compound leaf and cone stipule in the cultivated chickpea<br />

(Cicer arietinum L.)<br />

The cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) have mainly three different leaves, multipinnate/<br />

bipinnate, simple/unifoliate and normal/fern leaves, produced by spontaneous or induced<br />

mutations. The present study was aimed to study the inheritance of two new induced<br />

characteristics. Two new induced characteristics, compound leaf like the genus Lupinus L. and<br />

cone stipule on internodes, were isolated in a single mutant chickpea in M 3 generation.<br />

Inheritance of the new characteristics was studied in the segregating populations of M 4<br />

generation. Results indicated that the new characteristics were governed by two recessive genes.<br />

The new induced leaf and stipule characteristics were designated by clcl and cscs symbols,<br />

respectively. The segregated results suggested that these genes could be linked since they<br />

dependently segregated. The new genes may be useful for gene mapping in Cicer species.<br />
