Abstract
ICGV-SM86715 is a high yielding Virginia-type groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) interspecific backcross derived from (Samaru 38 × A. chacoense) × Samaru 61. It was released as Veronica in Mauritius in 1992, and also performed well in Malawi, Swaziland and Niger. In trials conducted at 3 locations in Mauritius, pod yields of 2.4-4.7 t/ha were recorded, corresponding to an increase of 65 and 24% over Cabri and DHT200, respectively. ICGV-SM86715 is resistant to rust [Puccinia arachidis] and late leaf spot [Mycosphaerella berkeleyi] in Mauritius and Swaziland and is only slightly susceptible to pepper spot [Leptosphaerulina crassiasca]. It has a growth period of 111-159 days, a 100-seed weight of 57 g and an average shelling percentage of 64%. Oil content of seeds is about 48%.
