Quantitative Trait Analysis Shows the Potential for Alleles from the Wild Species <i>Arachis batizocoi</i> and <i>A. duranensis</i> to Improve Groundnut Disease Resistance and Yield in East Africa

Diseases are the most important factors reducing groundnut yields worldwide. In East Africa, late leaf spot (LLS) and groundnut rosette disease (GRD) are the most destructive diseases of groundnut. Limited resistance is available in pure pedigree cultivated groundnut lines and novel sources of resis...
