A method for rapidly producing fertile peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants from embryo axes was developed for use with microprojectile bombardment. Using this method, the apical meristem housing the germ line cells was easily exposed for bombardment without compromising the viability of the plant. Germination was rapid on MS based, hormone-free medium containing 2% agar, while medium containing 0.6% agar caused embryo axes to swell and to develop slowly. Representatives from the market classes Virginia, Spanish, and runner all responded well to this procedure, while UPL Pn4 (Valencia) failed to form new leaflets. Microprojectile bombardment did not substantially impair embryo development. This method circumvents chromosomal and developmental abnormalities that could potentially occur with other peanut in vitro culture systems.

High-oleic peanuts are increasingly valued in agricultural production and consumer markets. Nevertheless, limited genomic information hinders the integration of genetic analyses and modern breeding strategies. This study details a chromosome-level genome assembly of Kaixuan 016, a high-oleic peanut variety developed through gamma-radiation-assisted breeding, exhibiting enhanced agronomic traits.

Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a devastating disease affecting a great many crops including peanut. The pathogen damages plants via secreting type Ш effector proteins (T3Es) into hosts for pathogenicity. Here, we characterized RipAU was among the most toxic effectors as ΔRipAU completely lost its pathogenicity to peanuts.

Exploring the relationships between plant phenotypes and genetic information requires advanced phenotypic analysis techniques for precise characterization. However, the diversity and variability of plant morphology challenge existing methods, which often fail to generalize across species and require extensive annotated data, especially for 3D datasets. This paper proposes a zero-shot 3D leaf instance segmentation method using RGB sensors.

Peanut ( L.) is one of the most important crops for oil and protein production. The unique characteristic of peanut is geocarpy, which means that it blooms aerially and the peanut gynophores (pegs) penetrate into the soil, driving the fruit underground.
