Evaluation of Genetic Resources of Groundnut
Abstract
Two hundred seventy Spanish bunch groundnut genotypes were assessed for pod yield against six different elite varieties viz. AK-12-24, JL-24, TAG-24, OG-52-1, Girnar-1 and ICGS-11 in Augmented Design under paddy fallow during rabi, 1999–2000. There was no significant difference among blocks and as well as checks. The variety TAG-24, among the checks registered highest mean pod yield/plant, Seven test entries viz. ICGS-387, 1931, 2499, 3317, 3336, 3345 and 6474 showed higher pod yield/plant against best check variety, TAG-24.
