A new peanut variety ‘Sinpalkwang’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. hypogaea L.) was developed at the Department of Southern Area Crop Science, National Institute of Crop Science (NICS) in Milyang 2012. This was developed from the cross between line ‘HP299’, crossed high yielding variety ‘Palkwang’ and short stem cultivar ‘PI156649’, and ‘Palkwang’. ‘Sinpalkwang’ which is a Virginia plant type had 25 branches per plant and its length of main stem was 41 cm. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long ellipse-shaped large kernel. Its yield components showed 45 pods per plant, 92 g of 100-seed-weight and 79% of pod shelling ratio in the regional yield trials (RYT). Seed quality showed 45.4% of crude oil and 29.2% of protein content. This variety also showed more resistant to web blotch, compared with reference variety. In the regional yield trials for 3 years ‘Sinpalkwang’ was more productive than reference variety by 28% with 5.4 MT/ha for grain production.

A new peanut variety ‘Ami’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. fastigiata.) was bred at the Department of Functional Crop, NICS, in Milyang in 2012. This was developed by pedigree method after the cross between the short stem cultivar ‘Satonoka’ and the disease resistant cultivar ‘Milyang16’. ‘Ami’ which is Shinpung plant type had 10 branches per plant and its length of main stem was 50 cm. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long ellipse-shaped large kernel, and its 100 seed weight was 84 g in the regional yield trials (RYT). ‘Ami’ showed 50.5% of crude oil and 60.5% of oleic acid composition in dry seed, and had 24.9 mg/g of sucrose and 4.5 mg/g of tannin content in fresh peanut. In the regional yield trials, ‘Ami’ was more productive than reference variety by 7% with 10.10 MT/ha for fresh pod production and by 14% with 4.51 MT/ha for dry grain production.

A new peanut variety ‘Boreom1’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. fastigiata.) was bred at the Department of Functional Crop, NICS, in Milyang in 2010. This was developed by pedigree method after the cross between the large grain cultivar ‘Suwon 108’ and the short stem cultivar ‘Milyang4’. ‘Boreom 1’ which is Shinpung plant type had 9 branches per plant and its length of main stem was 43 cm. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long ellipse-shaped large kernel, and its 100 seed weight was 105 g in the regional yield trials (RYT). ‘Boreom1’ showed 49.9% of crude oil and 54.5% of oleic acid composition in dry seed, and had 30.8 mg/g of sucrose and 4.2 mg/g of tannin content in fresh peanut. In the regional yield trials, ‘Boreom 1’ was more productive than reference variety by 8% with 10.16 MT/ha for fresh pod production and by 3% with 4.26 MT/ha for dry grain production.

A new peanut variety ‘Sangan’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. fastigiata L.) was bred at the Department of Functional Crop, National Institute of Crop Science (NICS), in Milyang 2011. This was developed from the cross between high quality cultivar ‘Palkwang’ and fewer branched germplasm ‘Chinese collect. 1’. ‘Sangan’ which is Shinpung plant type had 10 branches per plant and its length of main stem was 43 cm. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long ellipse-shaped large kernel, and 100 seed weight was 96 g in the regional yield trials (RYT). Seed quality showed 48.5% of crude oil and 29.1% of protein content. This variety also showed more resistant to late leaf spot and web blotch, compared with reference cultivar. In the regional yield trials ‘Sangan’ was more productive than reference cultivar by 15% with 4.87 MT/ha for grain production.

A new peanut variety ‘Jaseon’ (Arachis hypogaea ssp. fastigiata.) was developed by the Department of Functional Crop, NICS, in Milyang in 2011. This was developed from the cross between the large grain cultivar ‘YG60’ and the short stem cultivar ‘YG55’. ‘Jaseon’, which is a Shinpung plant type, has 11 branch number and 43 cm in main stem length. Each pod has two grains with brown testa and long-ellipse shaped large kernel and its 100 seed weight was 98 g in the regional yield trials (RYT). ‘Jaseon’ showed 43.2% of crude oil and 43.0% of oleic acid composition in dry peanut, and had 25.0 mg/g of Sucrose and 4.4 mg/g of tannin content in fresh peanut. In the regional yield trials, ‘Jaseon’ was outyielded by 15% with 10.21 MT/ha for fresh pod and by 11% with 4.37 MT/ha for dry grain, compared those of check variety.
