To compare the incidence of seed markings (tiger stripe/blotch) for a range of commercial chickpea varieties and advanced breeding lines sown on two sowing dates on the central western and north-western slopes of NSW.
Conclusions
Time of sowing and variety influence the amount of seeds showing the tiger stripe/blotching type markings in chickpea. Kabuli chickpeas do not suffer from this defect. Desi chickpeas sown in mid-June at Tamworth and Trangie had a lower incidence of this type of seed marking. Research is ongoing to identify both the genetic basis and the environmental triggers of tiger stripe/blotch type markings in desi chickpeas to minimise any potential risk to the Australian chickpea industry.
