Discovery of genomic regions and candidate genes controlling shelling percentage using QTL ‐seq approach in cultivated peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L.)
Cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important grain legume providing high‐quality cooking oil, rich proteins and other nutrients. Shelling percentage (SP) is the 2nd most important agronomic trait after pod yield ...
Genotype X Environment Interactions for Oil Content in Peanut and Stable High-Oil-Yielding Sources
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes with superior and stable agronomic performance and high oil content were identified from testing of 160 advanced breeding lines over six seasons. The study revealed significant genotype ...
Peg Biology: Deciphering the Molecular Regulations Involved During Peanut Peg Development
Peanut or groundnut is one of the most important legume crops with high protein and oil content. The high nutritional qualities of peanut and its multiple usage have made it an indispensable component of our daily life, ...
Genotyping-by-sequencing based genetic mapping reveals large number of epistatic interactions for stem rot resistance in groundnut
Key message
Genetic mapping identified large number of epistatic interactions indicating the complex genetic architecture for stem rot disease resistance.
Abstract
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) is an important global crop ...
Response of groundnut to plant density and phosphorous application in the Sudan savanna zone of Nigeria
Despite the recent release of several improved varieties of groundnut in Nigeria the productivities have not
increase significantly due to lack of commensurate recommendation in agronomic practices. Two groundnut
varieties ...
Next‐generation sequencing identified genomic region and diagnostic markers for resistance to bacterial wilt on chromosome B02 in peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L.)
Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is a devastating disease affecting over 350plant species. A few peanut cultivars were found to possess stable and durable bacterial wiltresistance (BWR). Genomics-assisted ...
Monitoring Changes in the Cultivation of Pigeonpea and Groundnut in Malawi Using Time Series Satellite Imagery for Sustainable Food Systems
Malawi, in south-eastern Africa, is one of the poorest countries in the world. Food security in the country hinges on rainfed systems in which maize and sorghum are staple cereals and groundnut and pigeonpea are now major ...
High transpiration efficiency increases pod yield under intermittent drought in dry and hot atmospheric conditions but less so underwetter and cooler conditions in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea (L.))
Water limitation is a major yield limiting factor in groundnut and transpiration efficiency (TE) is con-sidered the main target for improvement, but TE being difficult to measure it has mostly been screenedwith surrogates. ...
Assessment of millet-groundnut intercropping systems efficiency in Jigawa and Kano states.
In this study, an intercropping experiment consisting of millet and groundnut was established at Dutse (Jigawa) and
Minjibir (Kano) to compare the efficiencies of intercropping systems. Two intercropping systems (2:2 and ...
Assessing the prospects of Streptomyces sp. RP1A-12 in managing groundnut stem rot disease caused by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc
Stem rot of groundnut caused by the soilborne
pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii can cause significant yield
losses. Biological control of stem rot using actinomycetes
is a viable alternative to existing fungicidal management.
Though ...
