Description The ICRISAT genebank
conserves over 13,700 accessions of
pigeonpea from 74 countries. The collection
serves as insurance against genetic erosion
and provides rich source of diversity for crop
improvement. Pigeonpea is often cross
pollinated crop, therefore regenerated under
insect proof cages, and characterized for
morpho-agronomic traits, with most of the
traits showing abundant genetic variation.
Core and mini core collections representing
diversity of the entire collection were
developed to discover new sources of
variation for use in pigeonpea improvement.
