Nutrient Uptakes And Their Contributions To Yield In Peanut Genotypes With Different Levels Of Terminal Drought Resistance, Wunna Htoon, Sanun Jogloy, Nimitr Vorasoot, Banyong Toomsan, Wanwipa Kaewpradit, Naveen Puppala, Aran Patanothai

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Different peanut yields under terminal drought might be due to the different nutrient uptakes among peanut genotypes. Nutrient uptake was presumed to be a drought-resistant trait and might involve drought tolerance mechanisms. The aims of this study, therefore, were to characterize the effect of terminal drought on peanut nutrient uptake and to investigate the genotypic variability of nutrient uptake and its interactions with terminal drought. Field experiments were conducted at the Field Crop Research Station of Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen, Thailand, from October 2010 to January 2011 and October 2011 to January 2012. Six peanut genotypes were tested under …

This study was conducted to evaluate reproductive growth, oil and protein accumulation in seeds, and some yield components of 8 groundnut genotypes in 2001 and 2002. The number of flowers, pegs, and pods per plant during the reproductive period were determined with periodic counts starting from flowering. The percentage of flowers turned to pegs and pods, and the percentage of pegs turned to pods were calculated at the end of the growing period. After pod setting, 6 plants per plot were harvested at 15-day intervals to determine oil and protein content of seeds. At final harvest pod yield and some …
