Krapov. & W.C.Gregory

Arachis batizocoi is a herb native to Bolivia and Paraguay. This plant is cited as gene sources for research in plant biology of peanut (Arachis hypogaea). Arachis batizocoi maintains a divergent genome as well as high fertility that facilitates the upbringing of new and beneficial alleles within peanut crops.[1] Such high crossability has increased the frequency of several advantageous alleles that have improved plant life and agricultural output. Among these are boosted resistance against groundnut yield-limiting diseases such as late leaf spot (LLS) and groundnut rosette disease (GRD), larger seeds, and a higher overall yield.[2]
