Abstract
An investigation was carried out at the College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Kerala to study the host-varietal specificity, if any, for Rhizobium for nodulation in groundnut. A total of fifteen groundnut varieties were subjected to a preliminary screening on the basis of the number of nodules formed and arranged into five distinct nodulation groups. Seven varieties of groundnut TMV-12, USA-123 Exotic-6, Spanish Peanut, TMV -11, Ak12-24 and Ah-32 were selected from among these groups for use in further studies.
