Characterization of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Varieties as per DUS Guidelines
View through CrossRef
Seventy-five varieties of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) were studied to know various morphological characters (DUS) responsible for the identification of groundnut varieties. Seeds were collected from National Oilseed Research Station, Junagadh, Gujarat, India. The groundnut varieties were evaluated with three replications using the randomized block design (RBD) in farmers field Mittahalli village, Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu, India during 2020-21, 2021-22. Observation were recorded on morphometric characters viz., seed colour, seed shape, testa colour, 100 seed weight, plant growth habit, leaflet size, leaflet colour, stem pubescence, flower present on main axis, flower arrangement on side branches, pod constrictions, pod reticulation, and presence of beak. On other hand plant growth habit, kernal colour, kernal shape and testa colour are important characters for the identification of groundnut varieties.
