HACCP plan proposal for a typical Brazilian peanut processing company
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-07-01)
Peanuts are likely to be infested by fungi with consequent contamination by aflatoxin in post-harvest industries. A hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) plan is proposed for a typical Brazilian post-harvest ...
RFLP and cytogenetic evidence on the origin and evolution of allotetraploid domesticated peanut, Arachis hypogaea (Leguminosae)
(1996-10-01)
Nuclear restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was used to determine the wild diploid Arachis species that hybridized to form tetraploid domesticated peanut. Results using 20 previously mapped cDNA clones ...
Peanut genes identified during initial phase of Cercosporidium personatum infection
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-01-01)
Late leaf spot (LLS), caused by the fun.-us Cercosporidium personatum, is one of the most severe diseases in peanut (Arachis hypogaea). The vast majority of commercial cultivars do not exhibit satisfactory levels of ...
Yield and nitrogen uptake of peanuts as affected by lime, cobalt, and molybdenum
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 1998-01-01)
Peanut response to lime has been associated to calcium (Ca) nutrition, but a higher nitrogen (N) uptake has been observed in limed plots probably due to an increase in molybdenum (Mo) availability. A two-year experiment ...
Produtividade e perdas de amendoim em cinco diferentes datas de arranquio
(2013-10-02)
The harvest is a critical time in the production of the peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), however in this operation losses are inevitable, in some cases o f up to 30% of production. Peanuts are grown for a short period during ...
Peanut seed tegument is affected by liming and drying method
(Ista, 2000-01-01)
Calcium plays a fundamental role in cell division and growth, and is an important constituent of the cell wall. An increase in Ca concentration in the tegument of peanut (Arachis hypogea L.) seeds in response to lime ...
Chemical control of pathogens and the physiological performance of peanut seeds
(2013-07-23)
The establishment of a peanut crop may be unsatisfactory due to poor seed performance in the field and among the factors attributed to this are a reduction in seed vigor during storage and the presence of pathogens. The ...
Characterization of resveratrol content in ten wild species of section Arachis, genus Arachis
(2013-04-11)
Peanut is one of the few plants that synthesizes resveratrol, a phenolic compound of the stilbene class, which has been associated with reduced risk of developing chronic diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, ...
Root-system of peanuts as affected by phosphorus fertilization
(Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (EMBRAPA), 1994-11-01)
There have been some responses of peanut roots to phosphorus. An experiment was carried out to study peanut root growth and distribution as related to P in the soil. The cultivars Tatu, Oira and Tup4 and the lines FCA 170 ...
Nitrogen Supply for Cover Crops and Effects on Peanut Grown in Succession under a No-Till System
(Amer Soc Agronomy, 2009-01-01)
In Brazil, as no-till (NT) crop management expands, there is an increased interest in growing peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) with this system. However, it is not known if the preceding cover crop species, the amount of straw ...
