Peanut web blotch, a fungal disease affecting the leaves of peanut plants, can substantially impact both yield and quality. Genetic analysis and QTL mapping of resistance genes against this disease are crucial for identifying resistant germplasm resources and advancing peanut breeding. This study employed a recombinant inbred line(RIL) population consisting of 807 individuals derived from the cross between 'Huayu 44' and 'DF12' to dissect the genetic basis through QTL mapping for resistance. The analysis showed that the resistance mechanism followed the MX1-A-AI inheritance model, characterized by a combination of one major additive gene and multiple minor-effect genes and epistatic interactions. The major gene exhibited substantial heritability across three environmental conditions (63.44%, 60.70% and 74.64%, respectively). Through QTL mapping, we identified five QTLs, qDIA02.1, qDIA02.2, qDIB07, qDIB08, and qDIB09, distributed across four linkage groups, explaining 4.68%-15.91% of the phenotypic variation. Three QTLs, qDIA02.1, qDIB07, and qDIB09, were repeatedly detected across three environments, explaining 5.15%-9.43%, 7.62%-15.91%, and 5.24%-6.16% of phenotypic variation, respectively. qDIB07 was identified as a potential major QTL, indicating that peanut web blotch resistance is predominantly regulated by major genes. These findings provide a basis for future precisely localizing resistance genes to peanut web blotch and developing disease-resistant peanut varieties.
