The researches were carried out in Eastern Mediterranean Research Institute with 20 genotype and cultivar. Winter sowing selection were done in the research. The highest yield were obtained from FLIP 07-184 C line with 388.8 kg/da, buth the lowest value was obtained from FLIP 06-158C line with 112.9 kg/da. 100 seed weight were ranged from 44.3 to 31.4 g. Besides, flowering time and plath height were used as selection criteries. During the research year, negative effect of ascochyta were not determined because of the weather condition on investigated chickpea lines and cultivars.
