abstract: Released in 1998, the virginia bunch new variety Venus was developed by bulk selection from the cross of Kadiri 3 (ICG 799) with a stable, interspecific derivative CS-9. Venus has a decumbent habit, and matures in 120-125 days during the rainy season and in 135-140 days during the post-rainy season. It has two-seeded pods which have a small beak, a slight constriction and moderate reticulation. Mean pod size is 34 mm × 10 mm. Shelling percentage averages 68% while 100-seed weight ranges from 32 to 52 g depending on season and location. Seeds are tan coloured. Pod yield in trials conducted at Patancheru during kharif 1990 and 1991 gave mean yields of 1.58 t/ha outyielding ICGS 76 by 43.7% and Kadiri 3 by 64.6%. Venus is resistant to rust (Puccinia arachidis) and is moderately tolerant of late leaf spot (Mycosphaerella berkeleyi).
