Cultivated peanut ( Arachis hypogaea  L.) is valued at $1.28 billion annually in the USA. The sting nematode,  Belonolaimus longicaudatus , is an ectoparasitic pathogen that can devastate peanut production. Breeding for resistance to this pathogen is one of the most affordable ways to limit its damaging effects on peanut. The use of molecular tools can further accelerate the development of sting nematode-resistant cultivars. The objectives of this study were to identify single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers associated with sting nematode resistance in peanuts using publicly available datasets and to assess the accuracy of genomic selection in predicting the resistance to sting nematode. SNP discovery was conducted using a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in a peanut panel consisting of 775 USDA accessions, which were phenotyped for sting nematode resistance. GWAS was conducted using 13,306 filtered SNPs, run in TASSEL with three different statistical models. Results showed that (1) a total of 9, 13, 18, 2, and 4 SNPs, respectively, were found to be associated with sting nematode resistance using the single-marker regression, generalized linear model (PCA), generalized linear model (Q), and mixed linear model (PCA), and mixed linear model (Q), respectively; (2) two SNPs overlapped among the models; and (3) genomic selection was higher when the SNPs from GWAS were used to fit the model. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on SNP markers associated with and genomic selection for sting nematode resistance in peanuts. These results can be used to develop a molecular breeding strategy to select for sting nematode resistance in peanuts.
