Sibuga, K.P. | Reuben, S.O.W.M. | Doto, A.L.
Twenty entries of advanced breeding lines and varieties of groundnut were evaluated during the 1985/86 groundnut-growing season and 34 entries during the 1986/87 season for their performance in four different agroecological zones of Tanzania. The highest yields were from Ilonga and Morogoro where seed yield ranged from 0.938 t/ha to 1.888 t/ha in 1985/86 and from 1.033 t/ha to 1.948 t/ha in 1986/87. Plant density and number of pods/plant were consistently positive, and related to yield factors. Four entires in multilocational trials performed consistently as well as or better than the control variety, Natal Common
