Arachis hypogaea; peanuts; crop yield; peanut oil; oleic acid; linoleic acid; fatty acid composition; cultivars; plant genetic resources; genotype; pods; Botswana
Abstract:
... The ratio of monounsaturated oleic fatty acid to polyunsaturated linoleic fatty acid (O/L) and the associated agronomic traits were profiled for local peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) cultivars and accessions in Botswana. The research was tested on 16 entries planted in four localities across the country. The average total oil yield of the genotypes studied was about 42.1% and there was no significant ...

Arachis hypogaea; peanuts; disease resistance; Sclerotinia minor; blight; fungal diseases of plants; genetic markers; microsatellite repeats; polymerase chain reaction; DNA primers; genotype
Abstract:
... The production of cultivated peanut, an important agronomic crop throughout the United States and the world, is consistently threatened by various diseases and pests. Sclerotinia minor Jagger (S. minor), the causal agent of Sclerotinia blight, is a major threat to peanut production in the Southwestern US, Virginia and North Carolina. Although information on the variability of morphological traits ...

Arachis hypogaea; peanuts; germplasm; cold tolerance; agronomic traits; crop yield; crop quality; principal component analysis; phenotypic variation; India
Abstract:
... Tolerance to low temperature is an important prerequisite for optimal performance of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in a number of temperate peanut-growing environments. One hundred fifty-eight peanut accessions belonging to five botanical types, known to be tolerant to low temperature (12°C) at germination, were evaluated for phenotypic diversity for 15 morphological traits in the 2001 rainy season ...
