Note: to assess genetic variation and phylogenetic affinities among 16 Arachis species including 13 accession of A. hypogaea, one non-USDA accession of this taxon was used; based on RAPD & ISSR data or in combination all phenograms showed almost similar clusters, this taxon appears in a cluster sister to A. valida & A. kuhlmannii & together to A. cardenasii & A. duranensis within a cluster of members of the section, but distant from A. hypogaea
