A review of the nomenclature of the genus Arachis L.

Speciation, Cytogenetics, and Utilization of Arachis Species

“…et Fern., which originated from a man-made hybrid), with another 12 names commonly used in the literature but dot described (Table 11). The guidelines outlined by Resslar (1980) will be used in this paper even though proper diagnoses for many of the taxa have not been published.…”

“…While many species proliferate in shaded areas, others prefer open and sunny environments. Plants are most often found in ecotypes such as rock outcroppings, broken forested areas, forest -grassland margins, or (1973) and Resslar (1980).…”

Chromosome morphology in species of the sections, Erectoides and Extranervosae of the genus Arachis L.

“…The classification of the different species of Arachis into different sections has not yet been substantiated by either published accounts and/or descriptions in Latin. Therefore all the sectional epithets which have been proposed to date must be con sidered nomino nudum and have no status under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Resslar 1980). It is therefore worthwhile to examine the compara tive pachytene karyotypes of the species in relation to the sections of Gregory.…”

Effect of genotype and management system on forage production of cultivated peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) /

“…It includes both annual and perennial species, as well as diploid (2n=2x=20) and tetraploid (2n=4x=40) species (Stalker, 1990). Although over 70 species have been reported within the genus Arachis, until recently only 23 species, 1 botanical variety, and 1 hybrid were validly described (Singh and Simpson, 1994; Gregory and Gregory, 1976;Resslar, 1980;Stalker and Moss, 1987;Stalker, 1990;Stalker, 1991). Krapovickas and Gregory (1994) published a detailed work describing 69 species distributed in 8 Sections (Table 1).…”
