Inheritance of black-pod color in peanut
Article Abstract:
Genetic analysis of the heritable black outer pod color trait in peanuts was carried out using progenies representing crosses among Black-Pod, Krinkle Leaf mutant and Georgia Red cultivar parental lines. The results demonstrated a single dominant gene, Bp, for the Black-Pod trait. There was no observable cytoplasmic effects among the progenies from reciprocal crosses nor was there detectable linkage between the genes for Black-Pod and dominant Krinkle Leaf or Black-Pod and dominant red testa color.

Inheritance of a rusty-leaf trait in peanut
Article Abstract:
A rusty-leaf mutant had been observed in the cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). Crosses involving the rusty-leaf genotype were performed both between and within subspecies of A. hypogaea to determine its inheritance. The F1, F2 and F3 data showed that two complementary recessive genes, called rl1 and rl2, control the rusty-leaf characteristics. There were no maternal or cytoplasmic effects among progenies from reciprocal hybridization.

Inheritance of a lutescent-leaf color trait in peanut
Article Abstract:
Research is presented concerning the investigation of the inheritance of a lutescent-leaf color mutant of the cultivated peanut plant. The control of the lutescent-leaf color by 2 duplicate recessive genes is discussed.
