Variety traits
Cicer arietinum L.
The protein content in chickpea is an indicator of the mass fraction of crude protein, which serves as a key breeding trait for grain quality and typically ranges from 18.8% to 31.0% of the dry matter mass.
In the reference 26 varieties crop Chickpea, where this is mentioned in the description.
Breeding and collection samples of chickpea are characterized by protein levels in the range of 20–30%, with values above 25–27% considered high. Protein content is defined as the mass fraction in the grain and is calculated based on the total nitrogen content using a conversion factor of 6.25.
Protein accumulation in chickpea is influenced by the interaction between the genotype and environmental conditions, including temperature regime and moisture. Agronomic practices, such as seed inoculation with specific strains of nodule bacteria and the optimization of phosphorus and nitrogen mineral nutrition, contribute to increasing grain protein content, while it is important to avoid excessive doses of nitrogen fertilizers that inhibit symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
