Genetic diversity assessment of Georgia peanut cultivars developed during ninety years of breeding

Abstract The cultivated peanut(Arachis hypogaea L.) has experienced severe genetic bottlenecks over the course of its evolution and domestication. Most genetic diversity studies in peanut have focused on global genetic stocks, wild accessions, and related species, but few have focused on elite culti...
