A New Early Maturing and High Yielding Vegetable Peanut ‘Ami’

A new peanut variety ‘Ami’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. fastigiata.) was bred at the Department of Functional Crop, NICS, in Milyang in 2012. This was developed by pedigree method after the cross between the short stem cultivar ‘Satonoka’ and the disease resistant cultivar ‘Milyang16’. ‘Ami’ which is Shinpung plant type had 10 branches per plant and its length of main stem was 50 cm. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long ellipse-shaped large kernel, and its 100 seed weight was 84 g in the regional yield trials (RYT). ‘Ami’ showed 50.5% of crude oil and 60.5% of oleic acid composition in dry seed, and had 24.9 mg/g of sucrose and 4.5 mg/g of tannin content in fresh peanut. In the regional yield trials, ‘Ami’ was more productive than reference variety by 7% with 10.10 MT/ha for fresh pod production and by 14% with 4.51 MT/ha for dry grain production.
