  Extension Extra #8057, October 1989
Cicer milkvetch (Astragalus cicer L.), a legume native from the Causcasus Mountains in Asia across southern Europe to Spain, was introduced into the United States in the 1920'and It's used for grazing, hay, and soil conservation in the northern and central Rocky Mountain Region of the United States and western Canada.
Cicer milkvetch is a long-lived perennial that spreads by rhizomes.
Cicer milkvetch is well-suited for grazing because it's non-bloating and it's strongly rhizomatous.

 Cicer Milkvetch
Cicer milkvetch is a long-lived warm-season perennial legume that spreads by means of rhizomes.
Cicer milkvetch is adapted to a wide range of soil types including slightly acid soils to moderately alkaline soils.
Cicer milkvetch does not cause bloat in livestock, but ruminants grazing pure stands of the plant have experienced photosensitization.

Cicer milkvetch, Astragalus cicer L., is a relatively new forage legume suitable for use on rangelands, pasture and disturbed land.
Cicer milkvetch must be cross-pollinated for optimum seed yield, although some flowers from pollinator-excluded plants produced pods and seeds.

 Astragalus cicer L.
Cicer milkvetch was not competitive with birdsfoot trefoil, red clover or sainfoin when stands were cut for hay (Cooper, 1979).
Cicer milkvetch has proved useful for erosion control, and for reclamation of land disturbed by mining (Holecheck et al., 1982).
Cicer milkvetch has a higher leaf : stem ratio than alfalfa, especially under drought conditions (Peterson, Sheaffer and Hall, 1992) and it retains its leaves longer in late season (White and Wight, 1981), as a result of which it has a higher in vitro dry matter digestibility (DDM) (Loeppky et al., 1996).

Technical Abstract: Ascochyta blight in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a devastating fungal disease caused by the necrotrophic pathogen, Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab.
The objectives of our study were to elucidate the genetic mechanism of pathotype-dependent blight resistance in chickpea and to identify genomic regions associated with blight resistance on an intraspecific genetic linkage maps.
Further genomic study is required to identify qualitative blight resistance genes and their interaction for pathotype-dependent blight resistance in chickpea.

The cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) belongs to the genus Cicer, which comprises an additional eight wild annual species.
The wild Cicer species, in general, possess higher levels of tolerance to many key biotic (ascochyta blight, fusarium wilt, nematodes, bruchids, leaf miner, pod borer) and abiotic (cold, heat, drought) stresses than the cultivated species.
The other wild Cicer species of interest are C. bijugum, C. pinnatifidum and C. judaicum, which possess high levels of tolerance to various biotic and abiotic stresses (ascochyta blight, bruchids, leaf miner, nematodes, drought, and cold).

We report about the first survey of such sequences in chickpea, and their distribution in 8 annual species of the genus Cicer and other legumes.
Several classes of such sequences are present in the genus Cicer, that are either specific for the species, the genus, or are common to several legumes, also from other genera.
Multicolour in-situ hybridisation, used for physical mapping of the two satellites, revealed that both families occur in heterochromatic and DAPI positive blocks, but are clearly separated from each other.

The role played by the Aguadulce varieties in this process should not prevent other local races from being introduced into the work of improvers, industrialists and traders, particularly Ramillete and Muchamiel.
The Latin cicer gives the words Cicero, pods chiche, chickpea and the Spanish word "chícharo", which seems to have been a fairly common name for dry seeds of legumes, including some Lathyrus species.
The Spanish word "garbanzo" therefore seems to be a pre-Roman indigenous name, since it has no connection with either the Greek or Arabic.
