Abstract: Little is known regarding physiological processes which regulate seed growth rate and seed size in peanut (Arachis hypogea). As a step toward understanding these processes underlying varietal differences in seed size, the relationship between the number of cells in the seed and seed weight was determined for five peanut cultivars.The final seed size for these cultivars ranged from approximately 270 to 1000 mg and the final cell number...
