Genesis™ 510 Desi Chickpeas

Genesis™ 510 is a high yielding and widely adapted desi chickpea with
resistance to ascochyta blight. It is early to mid flowering with medium
plant height and moderate resistance to lodging. Seed size will
predominately be in the 5-6mm (14-17g/100 seeds) range and is smaller and darker than Howzat. It is therefore less preferred for whole seed markets.
