VARIETY GUIDE

he best variety choice is one that will achieve a rapid, uniform stand and provide good yields and grades over a wide range of growing conditions. Today’s varieties offer resistance to multiple diseases. Carefully consider what varieties would fit best into your fields and operation overall. Factors that affect the decision of what variety to plant include field history, irrigation, planting and harvest capabilities, seed availability and quality and marketing. On a fieldby-field basis, weigh all of these factors to determine how the variety may fit into your situation and on your farming operation. PG

AU-NPL 17: The high-oleic runner-type peanut was released by Auburn University and the National Peanut Research Lab in 2017. It is a high-yielding, TSWV-resistant cultivar with tolerance to leaf spot. Seed will be limited in 2019. Florida-07: This medium-to-late runner market-type peanut was released from the University of Florida. It has shown

excellent yield potential with good grades. Seed are larger and, for this reason, gypsum is recommended for additional calcium. It has good-to-excellent resistance to tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), some white mold resistance and tolerance to leaf spot. Florida-07 has high-oleic oil chemistry with good-to-excellent roasting, blanching and processing characteristics. FloRun™ ‘331’: This high-yielding, medium maturity, disease tolerant runner-type variety was released from the University of Florida, North Florida Research and Education Center, Marianna, Fla. in 2016. It has medium runner seed size with very good grades. FloRun™ ‘331’ has had excellent pod yield in both irrigated and non-irrigated trials over several seasons of testing across several locations in Florida. Of the runner-type varieties tested for resistance to leaf spots and white mold, FloRun™ ‘331’ has had among the best pod yield and lowest disease scores and it is moderately resistant to tomato spotted wilt. FloRun™ ‘331’ has high oleic oil chemistry beneficial for extended shelf-life and marketability of peanuts and peanut products.

2019 VARIETY GUIDE What’s Growing At IPG? New Peanut Varieties

nternational Peanut Group (IPG) is a private company that develops and releases new peanut varieties, as well as conducting other related research. IPG partners with Algrano Peanuts, a grower-owned sheller based in West Texas and New Mexico, to produce and sell commercial seed. While the southwestern U.S. is the bread-and-butter for IPG, the company operates throughout the U.S. peanut belt and has recently established a presence in Mississippi with a partnership with Mississippi State University. “We have partnered with MSU and the Mississippi Peanut Growers Association to develop varieties specifically designed for the unique production climate in Mississippi,” says Dylan Wann, IPG field plant breeder and research director. “We just finished our third growing season with them and are evaluating nine potential varieties selected out of that program.” IPG has a presence internationally as well with a breeding program in Argentina and varieties growing commercially in Europe, Africa, Central America and South America. The varieties developed and evaluated by IPG are 100 percent high-oleic and represent all market types. Working with Wann at IPG are Jim Gregory, who has 20 year’s experience in the peanut industry including quality control, research and variety development, and commercial production, and Mark Gregory in charge of IPG’s business development. In essence, IPG seeks to cooperate with manufacturers for desirable grade and flavor profiles, shelling and value-added characteristics. Through participatory cooperation with farmers, they seek to develop varieties with desirable agronomic characteristics, earliness, and exceptional yield and grade potential. For more information on IPG varieties, call 806-632-3068 or 806-522-6422, or email Mark Gregory at mark.gregory@ ipgseed.com or Jim Gregory at jim.gregory@algranopeanuts.com.

Tamrun OL07: This medium-to-late maturing high-oleic Texas A&M release has improved disease resistance compared to Tamrun OL01 and OL02 and FR 458. It yields similarly to these varieties in disease-free situations, but significantly higher in the presence of TSWV or Sclerotinia blight. Seed size intermediate between Tamrun OL02 and OL01. Tamrun OL11: A high-yielding, high-oleic, runner-type peanut cultivar developed by Texas A&M AgriLife Research. It has improved resistance to Sclerotinia minor (Jagger) and improved grade attributes over previously released runner-type cultivars that are resistant to S. minor. Tamrun OL11 is specifically developed for the West Texas growing region. Tifguard: Developed by USDA’s Agriculture Research Service in Tifton, Ga., Tifguard has resistance to nematodes so as to be characterized as “near immunity,” and it offers good yields and grades, especially in places where there would be no yield from other varieties. It offers good resistance to TSWV and maturity is similar to Georgia Green. TifNV-HighO/L: Released by USDA-ARS, in Tifton, Ga., this variety has the near immunity to nematodes as does Tifguard, with the high-oleic oil trait. It also has resistance to tomato spotted wilt virus. It is similar to Tifguard in plant and seed characteristics. TUFRunner™ ‘297’: Developed by the University of Florida, this variety is an extra-large seeded runner-type peanut with high-oleic oil chemistry. Released in 2014, this variety has demonstrated very good resistance to white mold, good resistance to TSWV, but is susceptible to leaf spot. Yield and

grade have been excellent. It has a prominent center stem with semi-prostate growth habit.

FEBRUARY 2 019 • THE PE ANUT GROWER /

2019 VARIETY GUIDE VIRGINIA-TYPE VARIETIES Bailey: Bailey is a medium to large-seeded and high yielding Virginiatype peanut. It produces high yields across multiple years and locations, which is an indication of good tolerance to fluctuations of weather and growth conditions. Bailey has a growth habit intermediate between runner and bunch types, bright pods and tan kernel color. More importantly, it is resistant to TSWV and thrips. It matures in approximately 145 DAP, just a little after CHAMPS, but it holds pods much better than CHAMPS if picked later. Bailey II: Like Bailey, Bailey II is a large-seeded Virginia market-type peanut with tolerance to CBR, Sclerotinia blight, tomato spotted wilt, and stem rot. Bailey II was released in 2017 and is the high-oleic version of Bailey. This variety is currently in seed increase and will not be readily available for a couple of years. CHAMPS: CHAMPS is a large-seeded Virginia-type peanut with a runner growth habit. It is the earliest maturing variety for the Virginia-Carolina region. Yields at early digging (135-140 days after planting in Virginia) are high, and pod size, shape and color are suited for in-shell market. CHAMPS is less susceptible to TSWV than most Virginiatype cultivars. CHAMPS is susceptible to CBR and Sclerotinia blight. High yields and favorable pod characteristics were observed across years and locations and, similarly to Bailey, showed good tolerance to growth factors. Emery: Emery is a high oleic large-seeded Virginia-type cultivar with alternate branching pattern, intermediate runner growth habit and medium green foliage. Emery has approximately 67 percent jumbo and 24 percent fancy pods, and seeds with tan seed coat averaging 940 mg seed-1 (480 seed lb-1). Emery is partially resistant to three of four major regional diseases: leaf spot, Sclerotinia blight, and Tomato Spotted Wilt virus, but it should be considered susceptible to Cylindrocladium black rot. Emery has bright pods and flavor comparable with runner-type standards. Yields and the number of days to maturity are similar with Bailey (145 days). Georgia-11J: This is a high-yielding, 16 /

intermediate between runner and bunch types. Maturity is similar to NC-V 11 (145 – 150 DAP). This variety produces an exceptionally high percentage of ELKs and Fancy pods. Due to large seed size, Gregory has a high soil calcium requirement that may result in reduced seedling vigor if seed is produced under conditions which limit calcium uptake. It is medium resistant to TSWV. Sugg: Developed at NCSU, this variety has resistance to TSWV, CBR, SB, PE ANUTGROWER .COM

and early leaf spot. Sugg has an intermediate runner growth habit and the color of seed coat is pink. Sugg produces high yields and has larger kernels than Bailey. It also has good blanching and flavor characteristics. Sullivan: A release by North Carolina State University, Sullivan is a high oleic Virginia-type cultivar with alternate branching pattern, intermediate runner growth habit and medium green foliage. It was developed from a cross with a sister line of Bailey and it has partial resistance to early leaf spot, CBR, Sclerotinia blight and TSWV. Sullivan has approximately 45 percent jumbo pods and 40 percent fancy pods, and seeds tan with seed coat averaging 931 mg seed-1. Yields and the number of days to maturity are similar with Bailey (145 days). Titan: Released in 2010 by Virginia Tech, Titan is an extra-large seeded peanut with an exceptionally high content of jumbo pods and super extra-large kernels. It is suitable for in-shell, gourmet, and green boiling products. Yields are relatively low if not irrigated. Maturity
