Peanut Varieties

BAILEY is a Virginia-type peanut with a flavor profile similar to the runner-type flavor standard Florunner. Its characteristics include an alternate branching pattern, medium green foliage, and an intermediate runner growth habit. Bailey produces a medium Virginia- type seed and a high content of fancy pods. Studies have indicated that it is partially resistant to early leafspot, Cylindrocladium black rot, Sclerotinia blight, and tomato spotted wilt virus. Variety Producers
CHAMPS was released by Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station in 2004 (experimental variety VT 9506102-6). It is an early maturing Virginia-type peanut with pink testa and bright pod color. Plant growth type is intermediate, similar to NC-V11 and VA 98R. Sclerotinia blight resistance is similar to VA 98R and Wilson. Resistance to tomato-spotted wilt virus is similar to NC-V11. Resistance to cylindrocladium black rot and web blotch is good. Variety Producers
GEORGIA-08V was released by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Station in 2008. It is a new high-yielding, high-oleic, TSWV-resistant, large-seeded, Virginia-type peanut variety. Georgia-08V has a high-oleic and low linoleic fatty acid ratio for improved oil quality and longer shelf-life of in-shell Virginia-type peanuts. It can only be sold by individuals licensed by the University of Georgia Research Foundation under guidelines established in conjunction with the Georgia Seed Development Commission. US VARIETY PROTECTION applied for and can be sold only as a Class of Certified Seed - 1994 PVPA. Variety Producers
GREGORY It is a large-seeded Virginia peanut with growth habit intermediate between bunch and runner, a pink seed coat, and a high percentage of jumbo pods and extra large kernels. It is susceptible to most diseases and insect pests. Because of its large seed size, Gregory has a high calcium requirement and may show reduced seedling vigor compared with other varieties. US PROTECTED VARIETY and can be sold only as a Class of Certified Seed - 1994 PVPA. Variety Producers
NC-V11 was released by the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service cooperatively with Virginia. It is a large seeded Virginia-type peanut with good quality factors, and has superior flavor. NC-V11 is high yielding and has significantly higher value than other available varieties. The variety has a runner growth habit, but is slightly erect. Maturity is about 140 days. Variety Producers
PERRY was released by the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service in 2000. It is a Virginia-type peanut with large seed and pink testa. It matures seven days later than NC 7. Perry has a high rating for resistance to CBR and partial resistance to Sclerotinia blight. It is characterized by a semi-runner growth habit. US PROTECTED VARIETY and can be sold only as a Class of Certified Seed - 1994 PVPA. Variety Producers
PHILLIPS was released by North Carolina Agricultural Research Service in 2005. It is a Virginia-type peanut with a large amount of bright fancy pods. It has alternate branching pattern, intermediate runner growth, medium green foliage, large seeds with tan testa, about 34% jumbo pods and 45% fancy pods. Maturity is similar to Gregory. Phillips performed similar to NC12C and Perry for reaction to early leaf spot and Cylindrocladium black rot. Susceptible to Sclerotinia blight. Reaction due to tomato spotted wilt virus is similar to NC-V11; less tolerant than Gregory. US PROTECTED VARIETY and can be sold only as a Class of Certified Seed - 1994 PVPA. Variety Producers
SUGG is a Virginia-type peanut breeding line selected as part of a program to develop cultivars with multiple disease resistance. Sugg has alternate branching pattern, intermediate runner growth habit, medium green foliage, high contents of fancy pods, and Virginia-type pods. It has seeds with pink testa averaging 851 mg seed-1, approximately 43% jumbo pods and 44% fancy pods, and extra large kernel content of approximately 48%. Sugg is partially resistant to resistant to the four most common diseases in the Virginia-Carolina peanut production area: early leafspot, Cylindrocladium black rot (CBR), Sclerotinia blight (SB), and tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). US VARIETY PROTECTION APPLIED FOR and can be sold only as a Class of Certified Seed - 1994 PVPA. Variety Producers
