Abstract
Cercospora resistant genotypes in groundnut are capable of maintaining a higher level of chlorophyll, soluble sugars, acid proteins, RNA and total phenol content in their leaves. A study of gene action revealed that both additive × dominance and dominance × dominance gene interactions are important for total phenol content in the leaves. Biparental matings followed by recurrent selection of types with increased amount of phenol in the leaves would be suggested for the development of Tikka disease resistant genotypes.
