Abstract

To interpret peanut yields,it is essential to understand the factors that affect the development of the peanut(Arachis hypogaea L.)fruit.The most comprehensive study on this subject was made by Shibuya(5)with large seeded runner and small seeded Java Bunch peanut.Certain phases of peanut fruit development have been reported by Pickett(3)for Virginia Bunch,by Patel and Seshadri(2)for a Spanish variety,and by Smith(7)for Virginia Jumbo Runner peanuts.In all lines of research based on fruit yield and quality, in which the Jumbo Runner variety of peanut has been used, the need for more information about the factors that affect fruiting has become increasingly important.
