dc.description.abstract Development of new crop varieties is a continuous process as old cultivars become prone to various biotic and abiotic stresses. The newly developed Kabuli Chickpea variety “Tamman” has high yield (1719 Kg/ha). It is resistant to disease and possesses tolerance to drought. Its seed is medium bold and 100 grain weighs is 31 g. It has been developed through selection method from the material (Chickpea International Fusarium Wilt Nursery- 2005-06) of the International Centre for Agriculture Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA). Selection of a promising progeny of single plant was made hat had parentage/pedigree Flip-03-134c/Flip-98-52cxFlip-98-41cand was named as 6KCC122. Its performance was further assessed along with check varieties in yield trials conducted during a period of six years from 2006 to 2012. It was observed in all replicated yield trials that the line 6KCC122 had the higher yield than that of the standards varieties. It was resistant to insects, diseases and had tolerance against drought. The main characters of this line that contributed towards yield were number of primary and secondary branches, number of pods per plant, 100 grain weight and pod length. On the basis of the desirable characters and higher yield (Kg/ha), this line was approved with the name of “Tamman” by the Punjab Seed Council for its cultivation on commercial level in the rain fed areas of the Punjab province. Due to the desirable characters, the Tamman variety of kabuli chickpea will be a good substitute of previously cultivated varieties. It will also contribute towards increasing the productivity as well as the farm income of the chickpea growers of the area. en_US
