Characterization and Comparative Analysis of RWP-RK Proteins from Arachis duranensis, Arachis ipaensis, and Arachis hypogaea

Successful crosses between fungal-resistant wild species of Arachis (section Arachis) and Arachis hypogaea

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is the fifth most produced oil crop worldwide. Besides lack of water, fungal diseases are the most limiting factors for the crop. Several species of Arachis are resistant to certain pests and diseases. This study aimed to successfully cross the A-genome with B-K-A genome wild species previously selected for fungal disease resistance, but that are still untested. We als...

The Proteins of the Peanut, Arachis Hypogaea.

The ravages of the boll weevil have made it unprofitable to grow cotton in various sections throughout the South. In many regions where the growing of cotton has been decreased, peanuts are now being grown as a supplementary crop. This has caused a large increase in the production of peanuts in the United States. A number of mills which in the past produced cottonseed oil are now using their pr...

The proteins of Arachis hypogaea and fibre formation.

decreases, the error involved in substituting them for 8 ,, and DO in the calculation of a molecular weight will be even lower. Unfortunately, molecular weights calculated from the combined data of sedimentation and diffusion constants are dependent to a considerable extent on the value of the partial specific volume, V, an error of 1 % in V causing an error of about 3% in the final result. The...

Analysis of Seed Proteins in Groundnut Cultivars (Arachis hypogaea L.)

The seed protein contents and protein banding pattern were studied in commonly cultivated groundnut cultivars. The groundnut cultivars such as ICGV00351, TMV-7, CO-4,CO-6 and TG-374 were used for quantitative and qualitative analysis of seed proteins. The protein contents varied among the different varieties of groundnut. The maximum protein content was observed in CO-6 followed by CO-4, TMV-7,...
