Abstract:

This study was conducted as a main crop in University of Cukurova, Faculty of Agriculture Field Crops Department in 2019 and 2020. The objective of this study was to determine the important agronomic and quality characteristics of advanced peanut breeding lines (F8 and F9) in main crop growing condition. In this study, 14 advanced peanut breeding lines belonging to Osmaniye-2005 x NC-7 (HA-01, HA-02, HA-03 and HA-14), Halisbey x Flower 32 (HC-1 and HC-4), Halisbey x Wilson (HW-1), Halisbey x HA-Runner (HR-1), Sultan x Brantley (YF-16/SB and YF-21/SB) and Halisbey x Brantley (YF-1, YF-8/P, YF-15 and YF-19) crossings and four standard varieties (Sultan, Ayşehanım, NC-7 and Halisbey) were used as a plant material. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with three replications. Pod number and pod weight per plant, 100-seed weight, shelling percentage, pod and kernel yield per decar, oil and protein content values of lines were investigated. According to a two tear average, the pod and seed yield per decar of breeding lines varied between 427.9-791.6 kg/da and 312.5-550.0 kg/da, respectively. The highest pod yield per decar was obtained from HA-03 line (791.6 kg/da) belonging to Osmaniye-2005 x NC-7 crossing. The pod yield of HA-03, HW-1, YF-8/P and YF-19 breeding lines were found higher than Standard varieties.
