Item TG-3, a variety of groundnut suitable for cultivation under partial shade in coconut gardens(Kerala Agricultural University, 1991) Sreekumar, S G; Gopinathan Nair, V; Saraswathy, PComparative evaluation of eight varieties of groundnut was conducted at the Regional Agricultural Research Station of NARP (SR), College of Agriculture, Vellayani for three years during 1984, 1986 and 1987 kharif seasons. The field experiment ( 8 x 3 RBD) was conducted at the interspaces of coconut garden under partial shade for identifying a suitable groundnut variety with high yield and shade tolerance. The pooled analysis of the data for three years revealed that the variety TG 3 was consistently superior in dry pod yield. Therefore, it was recommended for inclusion in the package of practices recommendations of the Kerala Agricultural University as a suitable variety for cultivation as intercrop in coconut garden under partially shaded conditions.Item Correlation studies in groundnut(Kerala Agricultural University, 1993) Pushkaran, K; Gopinathan Nair, VFor effecting dependable selection in breeding groundnut varieties suited to kharif uplands and summer rice fallows, genotypic correlation studies and path analysis were done based on 18 characters collected from 80 divergent groundnut varieties and the results compared and contrasted. There are differences in the direction, degree of relationship and relative effects for important characters on the economic trait on both the situations. Hence, in selecting ideal genotypes for the two situations, differential considerations had to be given for the component characters.
