Abstract
ICG 12991 is a short duration (90–110 d to maturation), drought-tolerant, spanish-type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. fastigiata Waldron var. vulgaris Harz.) germplasm line (Reg. no. GP-122, PI 639691) with a high level of field resistance to groundnut rosette disease (Naidu et al., 1999a; Subrahmanyam et al., 2000). Groundnut rosette disease results from a synergism of three agents: Groundnut rosette assistor virus (GRAV, a luteovirus), Groundnut rosette virus (GRV, an umbravirus), and a satellite RNA (sat RNA) of GRV. ICG 12991 was originally collected from a farmer’s field in south India in 1988. In 1994, ICRISAT introduced ICG 12991 into Malawi for evaluation during a germplasm screening program for resistance to groundnut rosette disease and early leaf spot disease (caused by Cercospora arachidicola S. Hori). Subsequently, ICG 12991 was released in Malawi as ‘Baka’ in 2001 and in Uganda as ‘Serenut 4T’ in 2002, following extensive testing and distribution by the national programs of each country. Resistance to groundnut rosette disease in ICG 12991 is due to aphid resistance, not due to resistance to the virus complex (Naidu et al., 1999b).
