Wild species of
PI 276203 from section EXTRANERVOSAE, PI 262142 from section ERECTOIDES and PI 331194 from section ARACHIS also had relatively low damage ratings in this study. Section Arachis is the only section with resistance to the mite that will cross readily with cultivated peanuts, Arachis hypogaea L. Thus the utilization of germplasm resistant to the mite from the wild species will require complicated and difficult breeding procedures.
