functions.php

<?php

// Remove "Home" link and trailing slash from breadcrumbs in Genesis themes
add_filter( 'genesis_home_crumb', 'remove_home_breadcrumb' );
function remove_home_breadcrumb( $crumb ) { 
  $crumb = '';
}

genesis_home_crumb hook and get_home_crumb function referenced in /wp-content/themes/genesis/lib/classes/breadcrumb.php

Rewriting $crumb var strips out the Home functionality, which in breadcrumb.php is
$crumb = ( is_home() && is_front_page() ) ? $this->args['home'] : $this->get_breadcrumb_link( $url, '', $this->args['home'] );
