Objective:
Develop virginia- and runner-type peanut cultivars with enhanced sensory quality and improved shelf-life.

Approach:
Sensory quality of roasted seeds from breeding lines from the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service's peanut breeding program will be evaluated by a sensory panel, and composition of seed components related to flavor and shelf-life will be determined.
