Innovative approach Figure 1. Map of Ethiopia showing Babile and Fedis districts. • A study was conducted to identify canopy growth traits using high-throughput phenotyping platform (LeasyScan) that can be used in peanut breeding to make selection decisions for adaptation to water-deficit stress. • The yield potential under well-watered and yield penalty under water stress was assessed under field conditions. • The water-deficit stress pattern (duration, time and extent) at Babile and Fedis districts was determined using the 31-years historical graded weather data of target environments of Ethiopia. Based on this the planting window at Patancheru and water- deficit stress were decided to mimic pattern of the target environments using lysimeters. Figure 2. Assessment of groundnut genotypes under leasyScan condition. Figure 3. Field trial to assess yield potential groundnut genotypes under water stress and well- watered conditions. Figure 4. Lysimeter experiment. Figure 5. Monthly Rainfall of Babile and Fedis ,1980 to 2011. • Althouhg the genotypes, ICGV 10178 and TAG 24 had the lowest water uptake under stress condition, ICGV 10178 recorded high TE and total dry weight, while TAG 24 has low TE and total dry weight. • ICGV 10178 had the highest digital biomass, leaf area, plant height and leaf area index, suggesting vigour of this genotype (Vader et al, 2015). • Based on the combined result of LeasyScan and lysimeter (i.e. vigour and TE), ICGV 10178 could be the best genotype in water use efficiency. Besides, it also recorded high pod yield and harvest index under water stress condition in the field experiment. Figure 6.

Figure 8. Total water extracted, total dry weight and transpiration efficiency of 12 peanut genotypes under water stress condition. • Transpiration efficiency (TE) of peanut genotypes under water-deficit stress was assessed at ICRISAT-Patancheru in Lysimeters. (Figure 8. Total water extracted, total dry weight and transpiration efficiency of 12 groundnut genotypes under water stress or well- watered condition. Key results • Leaf area, plant height, biomass obtained from the field experiment are correlated with the same traits obtained from LeasyScan, suggesting that the LeasyScan, a high- throughput phenotyping platform could be used for assessing LSPH and Biomass.
