During the project period, ICRISAT has made available a total <strong>of</strong> 270 new breeding lines to NARS for<br />
local evaluation; 22 <strong>and</strong> 14 sets <strong>of</strong> eight international trials were sent to UAS, Bangalore, <strong>and</strong> TNAU,<br />
Coimbatore, respectively. Twelve sets <strong>of</strong> six international trials were sent to UAS, Dharwad. Each trail<br />
consisted <strong>of</strong> 15 new breeding lines. In addition, a high oil content trial with 150 new breeding lines with<br />
high/low oil content was sent to TNAU, Coimbatore, <strong>and</strong> UAS Dharwad. From these trials conducted in<br />
Tamil Nadu, the groundnut lines ICGV 02266, ICGV 01124, ICGV 99231, ICGV 01263, ICGV 96155,<br />
ICGV 99017, <strong>and</strong> ICGV 00451 are under evaluation in state <strong>and</strong> national multi-location testing. Based<br />
on their performance in these trials they will be released at state/national level. Another 19 genotypes<br />
with high oil content were also identified for further evaluation <strong>and</strong> multi-location testing.<br />
From the trials conducted by UAS, Bangalore, the genotypes ICGV 00206, ICGV 00211 <strong>and</strong> ICGV<br />
00189 were identified for foliar disease resistance, <strong>and</strong> ICGV 05155, ICGV 07240 <strong>and</strong> ICGV 07225<br />
for drought tolerance, in addition to some other genotypes for confectionery traits <strong>and</strong> short / medium<br />
maturity duration. UAS-Dharwad identified the genotypes, ICGV 05056, ICGV 06142, ICGV 03032,<br />
<strong>and</strong> ICGV 06050 for high oil content <strong>and</strong> many others for various other traits. UAS-Raichur has identified<br />
ICGV 00446, ICGV 00440, ICGV 97079, ICGV 96211, ICGV 96155, ICGV 96172, ICGV 01124, ICGV<br />
95469, ICGV 02266, ICGV 22340, ICGV 00290, ICGV 99210, <strong>and</strong> ICGV 98372 from international<br />
trials supplies by ICRISAT. The identified genotypes will be sent to multi-location testing or if required<br />
re-evaluated for another season as well as multiplied for multi-location testing in the next season.<br />
