- In this study, Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted on totally 170 chickpea accessions collected from Adana, Hatay, Osmaniye, Kahramanmaraş, Mersin, and Karaman locations. All were seeded in the field of Çukurova Agricultural Research Institüte. In the first principle component, seed shape end structure of testa; in the second principle component pigmentation and hairiness, and in the third principle component, pigmentation and hairiness had the highest values. The characters determined through the three principle components, can be used to differentiate the populations. Keywords : Chickpea- Characterization, Principle Component Analysis (PCA)
