Huth KenyaNLGRPNot Available2005DEVELOPED2003CultivarDeveloped by ICRISAT and released in 2003 in two countries (Malawi and Tanzania) in eastern and southern Africa (ESA). Is a late-maturing pigeonpea cultivar released for its resistance to fusarium wilt, and has potential use in the cropping systems of the semi-arid ESA region and as a source of germplasm for pigeonpea improvement programs. A unique cultivar developed by selecting a single genotype from a landrace population that was collected from Kitui (eastern Kenya). Evaluation for resistance to fusarium wilt was conducted on-station in wilt-sick plots located in Kenya and Tanzania. At Kiboko Research Station (Kenya), the mean percent wilt (%W) was 19% and 21.0% in 1999 and 2001, respectively. Similarly, at Ilonga Research Station (Tanzania), the mean %W was 0% and 18% during 1999 and 2002, respectively. An indeterminate, compact, long-duration cultivar maturing in 170-230 d. The stem is green and attains a height of 2.5(+or-)0.6 m depending on prevailing temperatures. The branching type is compact. The flowers are yellow and are borne on short racemes. The pods are long, curved slightly, and contain 5-6 seeds. The seed is white (cream) and large (100 seed-weight = 18.0g). The yield potential is about 2.5 t/ha. 1676687PI 639265
