Improved Spanish peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. fastigiata var. vulgaris) germplasm ICGV 91278 (Reg. no. GP-98, PI 614083), ICGV 91283 (Reg. no. GP-99, PI 614084), and ICGV 91284 (Reg. no. GP-100, PI 614085) were developed at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) Center, Patancheru, Andhra Pradesh, India. These lines were released by the Plant Materials Identification Committee of ICRISAT in 1999 for resistance to natural seed infection and invitro seed colonization by the aflatoxin-producing fungus Aspergillus flavus (Link:Fr)
