Narrative
During the past five years (2009-2013) an average of almost 160,000 acres of chickpea were harvested annually in the USA. The value of a chickpea crop is influenced by both yield and seed size. Larger seeds are more desirable in the whole seed markets and have a higher value than smaller seeds, which are typically processed into hummus. The USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service separates chickpeas into two size classes based on the diameter of seed: small (< 7.9 mm), and large(<: 7.9 mm). Over a recent five year period (2009-2013), large chickpeas have received an average price of $0.80 kg-1, which is 48% higher than the average price of $0.54 kg-1 received for small chickpeas. "Nash" kabuli chickpea (Experimental designation CA04900843C; Reg. No. XXX Pl ) was released by the USDA-ARS in July 2013. Nash was released because of its superior yield and large seed size compared to the popular chickpea cultivar "Sierra" based on replicated yield trials conducted across 30 location-years in Idaho and Washington. Nash had similar performance as Sierra for several important agronomic traits including days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, and canopy height. Nash also exhibited moderate resistance to Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labrousse, which was similar to the disease reaction of Sierra. The mean yield of Nash over all trials was 1825 kg/ha, which was 17.2% higher than the mean yield of Sierra. Nash consistently produced larger seed than Sierra. The 100 seed weight of Nash was 59. 7 g, which was greater than Sierra .. Over 76% of the seed of Nash was > 9.1 mm in diameter.

Pedigree
Description:
Nash was developed from the cross HB-19//CA9783142 using a modified bulk-pedigree system of breeding.HB-19 is a fern-leaf type chickpea that has resistance to Ascochyta blight and CA9783142 is a simple leaf type kabuli chickpea breeding line that flowers early and produces large seed. F3 - F4 were bulk harvested from field plots. Nash is derived from a single F5 plant was selected based on seed traits (size, shape, and color) consistent with Kabuli chickpeas.
