The new winter rapeseed variety “Priz”

Evaluation of the Dry Matter Remobilization to Seeds in Winter Rapeseed Cultivars under Drought Stress Conditions

In order to evaluate dry matter remobilization to seeds in the winter type rapeseed cultivars grown under drought stress conditions, an experiment was carried out using a randomized complete block design arranged in a split plot with three replicates in Shahre-Qods, Iran, in the 2011-2012 growing season. Irrigation treatments including control (irrigation after 80 mm evaporation from evaporatio...

Soaking seeds with paclobutrazol enhances winter survival and yield of rapeseed in a rice-rapeseed relay cropping system

Rice-rapeseed relay cropping is an effective way to use winter fallow fields and increaseland use efficiency. However, the overlapping period of 10–15 days for rice-rapeseedcultivation results in reduced winter survival and less yields. Therefore, in this study, weinvestigated if the treatment of oil rape seeds with paclobutrazol (PAC) improves its winterhardiness and yields by altering its cro...

Classification of Winter Rapeseed Cultivars and their Yield Characters with the Common Vector Approach

In this study, five cultivars (Ceres, Zorro, Falcon, Express, and Samourai) of winter rapeseed were classified by using the common vector approach (CVA). For this purpose, seven yield characters (plant height, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, number of pods on main stem, number of seeds per pod, pod length and thousand seed weight) of each cultivar were used. The seven an...

Evaluation of Seed Yield Stability and Compatibility in Some Winter Rapeseed Genotypes

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Brassica napus (L.) one of the most important oilseeds in temprate climates. In the most breeding programs, especially when comparing several genotypes in different environments, due to the interaction of genotype×environment, genotypes show different performances in different environments. Therefore, to accurately estimate grain yield, multi-envir...
