Abstract

Improvements in peanut production practices could result from a more complete understanding of the development of the peanut fruit. In addition, such understanding would also supply a valuable background for studies concerning the process of curing which peanuts undergo following harvest. To increase our understanding of peanut fruit development, this paper reports studies of the oxygen absorption and carbon dioxide evolution, and their interrelationships, by fruits of two varieties of peanuts. A variety of the Virginia-type and one of the Spanish-type were selected for these studies in order to bring out possible differences between these two types (4).
