The cultivated peanut, a South American native
cultigens, is one of the major oilseed crops of the tropics and subtropics.
This natural and well-established allotetraploid (2n=4x=40, AABB) is included
in section Arachis together
with a wild allotetraploid and 29 wild diploid species. Researchers generally
agree that the wild progenitors of peanut belong to section Arachis, however, there is still uncertainty on
which A or B genome species has been the maternal parent. In order to address
this particular topic of the genetic origin of peanut, we investigated the
variability of cpDNA sequences in A. hypogaea and in eight closely related wild diploids.
For this purpose, six no-coding cpDNA regions were PCR-amplified and sequenced.
A total of 5200 bp were manually edited, and the substitutions as well as
insertions/deletions were recorded. The comparative analysis of the sequences
showed that species with A genome are more closely related to A. hypogaea and A. monticola than those with B genome. These results
demonstrated that the maternal diploid parent of peanut, and its wild
tetraploid ancestor, belongs to the A genome species group of section Arachis.
