  • This study was undertaken at Gowa, South Sulawesi, Indonesia as part of a larger forage genetic resource evaluation project. The experimental program consisted of a field experiment where grasses and legume species were grown in monocultures and the yield, N content and rumen bag digestibility using goats were measured. The field experiment was conducted from December 1985 to October 1986. Eight species of legumes (Desmodium heterophyllum cv. John-stone, Desmodium triflorum from Gowa, South Sulawesi, Arachis sp. from Maiwa, South Sulawesi, Clitoria ternalea CPI 50973, Macroptilium atropurpureum ev. Siratro, Neonotonia wightii cv. Tinaroo, Centrosema pubescens CPI 58575, Centrosema plumeri CPI 58568) were grown as monocultures. After establishment all plants were cut to a uniform height of 5 cm, and subsequent cuts were made on regrowth after 14, 28, 42, and 56 days (cycle 1). Cycle 2 commenced towards the end of the wet season and continued for 157 days into the dry season. The highest yielding legumes were C. ternatea in the wet season and Arachis sp. in the dry season. The mean rumen bag dry matter digestibility (RBDMD) of legumes of 67.6% for leaf material (averaged over all cycles and ages) was 7.6% higher than for stem material. The RBDMD of Arachis was significantly higher than all other species. The RBDMD of all legumes declined with age. Calculation of yield of digestible DM (yield $\times$ RBDMD) showed that Arachis sp. was the best legume. The combination of plant "quality" with yield measures is a valuable adjunct to routine agronomic survey procedures in plant evaluation programs. Arachis sp. appears to offer considerable promise and should be more widely evaluated.

  • The methanol extract of Arachis hypogaea shell showed antioxidative and antimicrobial activity. The methanol extract was successively purified by solvent fractionation, silica gel adsorption column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and octadecylsilane column chromatography. The purified active substances were isolated by high performance liquid chromatography, and were identified as 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid by LC-MS and GC-MS. The amount of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid were 3.8mg and 9.8 mg per kg of shell, respectively.

  • An efficient method of shoot regeneration of peanut is described. In vitro shoot organogenesis from the callus of cotyledon explants of Arachis hypogaea L. was stimulated by addition of Adenine sulphate (Ads) along with 6 - benzylaminopurine (BAP) and - napthalene acetic acid (NAA). Ads (13 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) had a stimulatory effect on shoot bud differentiation when combined with BAP (13 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) and NAA (2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). Shoot organogenesis was markedly higher (92%) from callus induced on Ads, BAP and NAA combined media than from those formed by the individual supplementation of Ads or BAP with NAA. The shoots elongated on the media with GA$_3$ (1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). Elongated plantlets rooted with MS media containing IBA (9 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$).

  • Pods and kernels of two peanut(Arachis hypogaea L.) cultivars, a Shinpung type, Shindaekwangtangkong and a Virginia bunch type, Namdaetangkong were harvested periodically after the gynophore earthing in the field condition and their developments were monitored by observation of the changes in size, weight and moisture content. Seed germinability and seedling vigor were tested to set up a method for hastening the generation advancement in breeding procedure. Pods and kernels reached the maximum in size at 30 to 40 days after gynophore earthing and at that time the kernels had one hundred percent germinability and the seedlings sprouted from those kernels exhibited practically acceptable viability enough to grow for the next generation.

  • The effect of dual inoculation with vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal fungi, Glomus mosseae, and Bradyrhizobium sp. R938 on the nitrogenase activity of peanut plant (Arachis hypogeae L. cv. Youngho) was studied in pot experiment. As a result of the dual inoculation with Glomus mosseae and Bradyrhizobium on peanut plant, nitrogenase activity was increased by 1.5 times compared with single inoculation with Bradyrhizobium sp. R938. After 69 days growth of peanut plant, the size of nodules was also increased due to the mycorrhizal infection. The mean fresh weight per nodule was 6.7 mg in treatment with the dual inoculation, which is the 1.5 times increase compared with single inoculation with Bradyrhizobium sp. R938. These results suggested that there might be a hormonal effect of VA mycorrhizal fungi in addition to the effect of increase in nitrogen fixing ability through the enhancement of nutrient absorption.

  • Background: Owing to its high efficiency in lipid and protein production, peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is considered one of most important crops world-wide. The kernels of peanuts are undoubtedly the most important product this plant, whereas the skin is almost completely neglected in nutraceutical terms. However, peanut skin contains potentially health-promoting phenolics and dietary fiber, and there is considerable potential for commercial exploitation. In this study, we evaluated the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of an extract of peanut skin (PS). Methods and Results: The α-glucosidase inhibitory effects of 80% ethanol extracts of peanut (A. hypogaea L. 'Sinpalkwang') skin were evaluated and found to have a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 1.2 ㎍/㎖. Progress curves for enzyme reactions were recorded spectrophotometrically, and the inhibition kinetics revealed time-dependent inhibition with enzyme isomerization. Furthermore, using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry, we identified 26 compounds in the peanut skin extract, namely, catechin, epicatechin, and 24 proanthocyanidins. Conclusions: The results suggest that peanut skin can be utilized as an effective source of α-glucosidase inhibition in functional foods and nutraceuticals.

  • The groundnut or cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in Korea consists of 36 domestic varieties which have been developed and registered as cultivars for the public during last 25 years. To screen and identify of Korean peanut varieties and genetic resources, we present a simple and reliable method. A methodology based on simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers developed and widely used for prominent gene identification and variety discrimination. For identification of those 36 Korean peanut varieties, 238 unique peanut SSR markers were selected from some previously reported results, synthesized and used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Data were taken through acryl amide gel electrophoresis and changed into proper formats for application of data mining analysis using Biomine (all-in-one functional genomics data mining program). Consequently, twelve SSR primers were investigated and revealed the differences between those 36 varieties. These primer pairs amplified 27 alleles with an average of 2.3 allele per primer pair. In addition, those results showed genetic relationship by classification method within 36 varieties. The approach described here could be applied to monitoring of our varieties and adapting to peanut breeding program.
