Abstract

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) belongs to genus Cicer, tribe Cicereae, family Fabaceae, and subfamily Papilionaceae is one of the most important pulse crops grown in India. It has been well recognized as a valuable source of protein particularly in India, where a majority of the population is vegetarian and depends on the low priced food for meeting its dietary requirements. It is consumed as a dry pulse, after cooking, germination, soaking or fermentation or as a green vegetable. It is also used for the preparation of various sweets and spicy dishes where the split grains or flour are used besides dhal.
