Description Flower buds from three varieties of groundnut, Robut 33-1, TMV 3, and ICGS 11, growing in the field and one variety, Robut
33-1, growing in the glasshouse, were collected at different times after sowing and the size of the flower buds, colour of the anthers, and the
genotypes were correlated with the stage of anther development. Significant differences were observed among sizes of anthers containing pollen
at different stages of development. These sizes differed at the beginning and end of the flowering season, but the correlation of anther colour
with the stage of development was independent of the time of flowering. The observations showed that anthers could be harvested for culture
by standardizing the sizes of flower buds one day earlier, and by collecting buds only of sizes corresponding to the desired stage (the non-overlapping zone of the graph)
