Georgia-06G is a new high-yielding, TSWV-resistant, large-seeded, runner-type peanut variety that was released in 2006 by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations.  It was developed at the University of Georgia, Coastal Plain Experiment Station in Tifton, Ga.   Georgia-06G has a high level of resistance to the spotted wilt disease caused by tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV).  In multilocation tests conducted in Georgia during the past several years, Georgia-06G was found to have the lowest disease incidence, highest pod yield, highest TSMK grade, and highest dollar value return per acre compared to other runner-types tested each year.  Georgia-06G combines high TSWV resistance with meduim maturity and excellent yield, grade, and dollar value return per acre.
