Evaluation of Ethiopian chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes for frost tolerance

<p>Frost stress is one of the most significant abiotic factors affecting chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) production in the Ethiopian highlands. To investigate the frost tolerance of chickpea, 673 genotypes were characterized using an augmented design at Bakelo, Debre Berhan, Ethiopia for two yea...
