The study was conducted at the Education and Research Farm of the Department of Botany, College of Agriculture, Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri, Maharashtra state during the kharif and rabi2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons, to study the “Effect of seasons and plant spacings on quality parameters of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes”. The experiment was laid out in split plot design replicated three times. The main plot treatment consists of two seasons (kharif and rabi); however, sub plot treatments consist of eleven groundnut genotypes.

Groundnut is an important food legume in tropical, sub-tropical and temperate countries of the world. In India, groundnut is grown in an area of 5.53 million ha with a production and productivity of 9.67 million tons and 1750 kg/ha respectively. Groundnut quality is usually affected by storage practices and storage periods.

The main constraints hampering higher yields and quality of groundnut in Karnataka could be attributed to several production constraints, which may biotic and abiotic stresses include poor and imbalanced nutrition. Therefore, plant nutrition plays a vital role in increasing production and productivity of groundnut. Fertilizer application normally results in increased crop yields up to certain levels. However, the exact time and dose of fertilizer application is also important for successful exploitation of the crop’s potentiality in terms of yield.

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2015 at Agronomy Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner, Jaipur (Rajasthan) with groundnut variety RG-382 (Durga) on loamy sand alkaline soil under irrigated condition. The treatments consisted 20 combination of 5 organic manures viz. control, FYM @ 10 t/ha, poultry manure @ 5 t/ha, vermicompost @ 4 t/ha and RDF) and four levels of molybdenum viz. control, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 kg Mo/ha through sodium molybdate which were tested in factorial RBD replicated thrice.

Changes in quality of host plants under elevated CO2 (eCO2) conditions likely in future can affect the survival, growth and development, and population dynamics of insect herbivores. The present study aimed to examine the growth and development of leaf feeding Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) reared on groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) grown under elevated CO2 condition in open top chambers at Main Agricultural Research Station (MARS), University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur, Karnataka, India.

Leaf spots are the most serious foliar fungal diseases of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) World wide. Early leaf spot and late leaf spots, singly or together can cause losses in pod yield of over 50% and reduce the quality of the pod and fodder. Screening of genotypes and advance breeding lines is one of the primary objective for resistance breeding in groundnut. Present investigation was carried out to screen 33 advance breeding lines and 7 released varieties of groundnut against early and late leaf spot diseases.

High temperature and high relative humidity cause severe and rapid deterioration of viability and vigour of groundnut seeds. The environmental conditions that exist during the growth period and harvesting time affects the seed quality and storability. Thus, the environment / provenance plays a major role in determining the seed storability and quality.

The microbial quality of unbranded groundnut oil sold in Mile 1 and Mile 3 Markets in Diobu area of Port Harcourt, Rivers State was investigated. Five samples of different unbranded groundnut oil bought from both markets were used for the microbiological analysis. The isolation and enumeration of total aerobic heterotrophic bacteria, total fungi, and total coliform bacteria counts was done with nutrient agar, potato dextrose agar and MacConkey agar medium using standard microbiological techniques.

The crop phenology, growth and productivity are strongly influenced by changing the cropping season. The kharif (June-Oct.) is the major groundnut- growing season. The CGR is higher in kharif crop than rabi season crop, but the average per day dry matter production is similar in both the seasons. Flowering and fruiting, in groundnut, are of an indeterminate type, which generally has an effect on yield and quality. Ideal type of groundnut would be one that sets all its young fruits within 4-5 days and spends the rest of the growing season filling them.

An experiment was conducted to assess the storability of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) seed lots based on vigour tests during 2015-16. Nineteen seed lots with varying vigour levels based on different germination percentages were taken and replicated four times. The results indicated that seeds with higher vigour were able to retain the vigour for longer period (at the end of storage period of six months). The vigorous lots recorded higher quality parameters at the end of storage period.

An investigation was carried out to study the effects of various doses (0.2 to 0.6%) of EMS on physico-quality traits of groundnut (Arachis hypogea L) in M4 families of the groundnut variety TPG 41. Among the different concentrations of EMS treated TPG 41 population, 0.2 % EMS was found to be effective in inducing variability for pod yield per plant, hundred kernel weight, shelling out turn and kernel length in M4 families.
