Description Peanut, as a source of oil and protein, is the second-most important
grain legume cultivated. The perceived lack of molecular variation in the cultivated
species had, until recently, resulted in a focus on characterization and mapping
of wild species and on transformation of peanut with genes for improved disease
resistance. With development of simple sequence repeats and potentially single nn-
cleotide polymorphism-based markers and improved minicore collections, the focus
is shifting towards the molecular characterization of the cultivated species. The de-
velopment of large-inset libraries, expressed sequence tags. genomic clone libraries,
characterized mutant collections, and hioinlrmatics is e\jiected to ads ance peanut
genomics.
