To assess some characteristics in chickpea (Cicer arietinum) global germplasm, a genetically diverse subset from the USDA global chickpea core collection was assayed. The greenhouse experiment evaluated 39 global accessions and commercial cultivar UC-5, inoculated with Mesorhizobium ciceri. The design was carried out at greenhouse of Washington State University in complete block design with 6 replications in 2011. Flower number, biomass and ratio shoot to root (shoot/root) were determined. The results showed that cultivar had significant effect on flower number and biomass. The maximum flower number and biomass obtained ACNO 360456 from Iran and ACNO 339223 from Turkey respectively. The biomass had a positive, significant correlation with number of flower. ACNO = Accession number.
