Description

More than 700 accessions of chickpea collection of various origins have been studied, which highlighted sources of high productivity, double-beabyness, precociousness, resistance to disease and other economic valuable features. In the study of the intensity of germination of chickpea seeds at low positive temperatures, varieties of Krasnokutsky 123, Alexandrite, Pegasus ta Yarina, which can be considered sources of cold resistance, were isolated. The genotypes that accumulate high protein content in seeds and are resistant to the main races of the most harmful diseases of crops, which will later serve as a basis for creating drought-resistant varieties suitable for growing in the steppe and southern forest-steppe of Ukraine were identified. In particular, in the competitive variety test, 10 tolerant to the main diseases of chickpea varieties were identified, which exceeded the Budjak standard by 20-30% in terms of grain yield. According to the results of the three-year state test, the state register of plants of Ukraine Yarina chickpea variety was registered in 2019 (certificate № 190386; 13.02.2019). In 2019, the lines L 47-16 and L 34-16 were registered in the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources of Ukraine, which combine the sign of double-robbery with high productivity and large seed. In 2020, a new variety of Maestro chickpea was transferred to the state-grade variety.
