Additional sources of resistance to groundnut rosette disease in groundnut germplasm and breeding lines

Abstract: SummaryGroundnut rosette, a virus disease of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) transmitted by the aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch, reduces yield in susceptible cultivars by 30–100%. Additional sources were sought in germplasm accessions involving 2301 lines from different sources and from 252 advanced breeding lines derived from crosses involving earlier identified sources of resistance to rosette. The lines were evaluated in field screening trials using an infector row technique during 1996 and 1997 growing seasons. … Show more

“…Farmers have adopted several cultural, biological and chemical methods to curb the spread of the disease but the adoption rate of these methods has been very low because they are not economical and effective (Olorunju et al, 2001). However, the most economic, ecological and environmentally-friendly method of control is the use of rosette resistant lines (Adu-Dapaah et al, 2004).…”

“…This was done to ensure effective inoculation by the vectors. Each of the test plants was evaluated for GRD symptoms at weekly interval for the first four weeks and every two weeks thereafter using a 1-5 rating scale (Pande et al, 1997;Olorunju et al, 2001) as follows: 1= No visible symptoms on leaves (Highly Resistant), 2= Rosette symptoms on 1 to 20% leaves, but no obvious stunting (Resistant), 3= Rosette symptoms on 21-50% leaves with stunting (Moderately Resistant), 4= Severe symptoms on 51 to 70% leaves with stunting (Susceptible), and 5= Severe symptoms on 71 to 100% leaves with stunting (Highly Susceptible).…”

“…The nine parental lines along with the 36 F2 progenies were evaluated for GCRD resistance using a 9 x 5   lattice design with two replications at two locations (Samaru, Kaduna state, and Lafia, Nasarawa state (8  32"N, 742"E ) during the 2011/2012 growing seasons using an infectorrow techniques (susceptible SAMNUT 14 genotype was planted in alternate rows with test materials) as described by Olorunju et al (2001) at the two locations. The infector rows were planted 2 weeks prior to the test materials to allow the build-up of inoculum.…”

“…Cropping practices have led to effective management practices for controlling GRD (Naidu et al, 1998); however, the approach is seldom feasible for the subsistence farming systems of SSA . Efforts in breeding for hostplant resistance and evaluation of the global collection of groundnut germplasm have contributed to the identifycation and development of several groundnut germplasm lines with acceptable levels of field resistance to GRD (Olorunju et al, 1991;2001;van der Merwe and Subrahmanyam, 1997;Subrahmanyam et al, 1998). Since 1995, the Uganda National Groundnut Improvement Programme has released 13 rosette resistant commercial varieties.…”
