Abstract

Abstract: 'Georgia‐Val/HO' (Reg. no. CV‐143, PI 695316) is a new high‐yielding, high‐oleic, large‐podded, large‐seeded, valencia‐type peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L. ssp. fastigiata var. fastigiata ) cultivar. Georgia‐Val/HO has an atypical semi‐prostrate growth habit and medium maturity, but typical valencia three seed per pod and red testa color. It also has moderate resistance to tomato spotted wilt disease. Georgia‐Val/HO was released by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Station in 2020 and was developed at the University of Georgia Coastal Plain Experiment Station, Tifton, GA. It was developed from an intersubspecific cross made in 2010 between two Georgia cultivars, 'Georgia‐11J' (ssp. hypogaea ) and 'Georgia Valencia' (ssp. fastigiata ). During 4 yr (2016–2019) averaged across two planting dates (April and May), Georgia‐Val/HO had significantly less total disease incidence and higher pod yield, total sound mature kernel (TSMK) grade, and dollar values compared with six other valencia cultivars in Georgia. Georgia‐Val/HO had significantly higher overall performance at both early April and optimum May planting dates. Georgia‐Val/HO combines high yield, TSMK grade, and dollar value with large pods and seed and the high O/L ratio trait for longer shelf life of peanut and peanut products. Core Ideas: Georgia‐Val/HO is a new valencia‐type peanut cultivar. Georgia‐Val/HO has high yield and large pod and seed size. This new cultivar has a high oleic/linoleic ratio.
