Registration of ‘Georgia-06G’ Peanut

Abstract: 120 Journal of Plant Registrations, Vol. 1, No. 2, September 2007 ‘G eorgia-06G’ (Reg. no. CV-94, PI 644220) is a new highyielding, Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV)-resistant, runner-type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar that was released by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations in 2006. It was developed at the University of Georgia, Coastal Plain Experiment Station, Tifton, GA. Georgia-06G originated from a cross made in 1996 between ‘Georgia Green’ (Branch, 1996) × ‘C-99R’ (Gorbet and Shokes, 2002). Pedigree selection was practiced within the F 2 , F 3 , and F 4 populations for TSWV resistance, desirable pod shape, runner seed size, testa color, growth habit, maturity, high yield, and grade characteristics. Performance testing began in the F 4:6 generation with the advanced pure-line selection, GA 011557. During three years (2003–2005) in 16 multilocation Georgia tests planted in mid-May, and eight multilocation Georgia tests planted earlier in mid-April, Georgia-06G had among the lowest TSWV incidence and the greatest total disease resistance, as well as among the highest in pod yield (4822 kg ha), total sound mature kernel (TSMK) grade (75%), and dollar value return per hectare ($1930 ha) when compared to other runner-type peanut cultivars. In these same Georgia multilocation tests, the check cultivar Georgia Green had an average yield, grade, and dollar value of 4026 kg ha, 72%, and $1584 ha, respectively. When tested in the 2004 Uniform Peanut Performance Tests (UPPT), Georgia-06G was also found to have the highest pod yield (5648 kg ha) and highest TSMK grade at 78% averaged across all UPPT locations (Branch et al., 2005). At these same 2004 UPPT locations, the check cultivar ‘Florunner’ (Norden et al., 1969) had an average yield of 4080 kg ha and an average grade of 75%, respectively. Georgia-06G has thus shown very good performance stability and a wide-range of adaptability throughout the major peanut production areas of the USA. Georgia-06G has an intermediate or decumbent runner growth habit and medium maturity similar to Georgia Green. Registration of ‘Georgia-06G’ Peanut

Registration of ‘Tifguard’ Peanut

Abstract: 'Tifguard' (Reg. No. CV-101, PI 651853) is a runner-type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar released by the USDA-ARS and the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations in 2007. Tifguard was developed at the University of Georgia Coastal Plain Experiment Station, Tifton, GA. Peanut cultivars are available that have high resistance to the peanut root-knot nematode [Meloidogyne arenaria (Neal) Chitwood race 1] or spotted wilt caused by tomato spotted wilt tospovirus (TSWV). However, no cultivars exist that have resistance to both pathogens. Our research objective was to combine resistance to both pathogens in a single cultivar. Breeding populations were developed by hybridizing the TSWV-resistant 'C-99R' with the nematode-resistant 'COAN'. Selection for nematode resistance was conducted using standard greenhouse screening techniques. Selection for TSWV resistance was conducted in the field with natural virus infection. A breeding line (C724-19-15) was selected that had high resistance to both pathogens. Tifguard exhibited higher resistance to TSWV and higher yield than standard check cultivars when grown in fields with little or no nematode pressure. Because of its high level of resistance to both TSWV and M. arenaria, Tifguard had significantly higher yield than all others entries when grown in two locations with high pressure from both pathogens. This cultivar should be valuable for peanut growers who have to deal with both pathogens.

Registration of 'Florida-07' peanut.

Abstract: 'Florida-07' (Reg. No. CV-104, PI 652938) peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar was developed by the University of Florida, Florida Agricultural Experiment Station, North Florida Research and Education Center near Marianna, FL. It was approved for release in 2006. Florida-07 has larger-than-average runner market-type seeds and pods. The growth habit of Florida-07 is prostrate, typical of runner-type peanut cultivars. Under irrigation in Florida, it matures about 140 d after planting, which places it in the category of medium-late relative maturity. Release of Florida-07 was made on the basis of its excellent pod yield potential, competitive kernel grade (percentage total sound mature kernels), high-oleic fatty acid oil chemistry, and resistance to spotted wilt (caused by Tomato spotted wilt tospovirus) and white mold (Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc.).

Registration of 'Bailey' Peanut

Abstract: ‘Bailey’ (Reg. No. CV-111, PI 659502) is a large-seeded virginia-type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) with partial resistance to fi ve diseases that occur commonly in the Virginia-Carolina production area: early leaf spot (caused by Cercospora arachidicola Hori), late leaf spot [caused by Cercosporidium personatum (Berk. & M.A. Curtis) Deighton], Cylindrocladium black rot [caused by Cylindrocladium parasiticum Crous, M.J. Wingf. & Alfenas], Sclerotinia blight ( caused by Sclerotinia minor Jagger), and tomato spotted wilt (caused by Tomato spotted wilt tospovirus). It also has partial resistance to southern stem rot (caused by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc.). Bailey was developed as part of a program of selection for multiple-disease resistance funded by growers, seedsmen, shellers, and processors. Bailey was tested under the experimental designation N03081T and was released by the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service (NCARS) in 2008. Bailey was tested by the NCARS, the Virginia Agricultural Experimental Station, and fi ve other state agricultural experiment stations and the USDA-ARS units participating in the Uniform Peanut Performance Tests. Bailey has an alternate branching pattern, an intermediate runner growth habit, medium green foliage, and high contents of fancy pods and medium virginia-type seeds. It has approximately 34% jumbo and 46% fancy pods, seeds with tan testas and an average weight of 823 mg seed −1 , and an extra large kernel content of approximately 42%. Bailey is named in honor of the late Dr. Jack E. Bailey, formerly the peanut breeding project’s collaborating plant pathologist.

Registration of 'Mace' Hard Red Winter Wheat

Abstract: ‘Mace’ (Reg. No. CV-1027, PI 651043) hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was developed by the USDA-ARS and the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and released in December 2007. Mace was selected from the cross Yuma//PI 372129/3/CO850034/4/4*Yuma/5/(KS91H184/Arlin S//KS91HW29/3/NE89526). Mace primarily was released for its resistance to Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) and adaptation to rainfed and irrigated wheat production systems in Nebraska and adjacent areas in the northern Great Plains. Mace was derived from a head selection made from a heterogeneous, in terms of fi eld resistance to WSMV, F 5 line. Resistance to WSMV is conditioned by the Wsm-1 gene, located on an introgressed chromosome arm from Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey [Agropyron intermedium (Horst.) Beauv.] present as a 4DL.4AgS chromosomal translocation. Mace was tested under the experimental designation N02Y5117.
