Abstract:

Genotype by environment interaction is one of the complicated issues in plant breeding programs for development of high-yielding with yield stability genotypes. To evaluate seed yield and yield stability of oilseed rape in four southern and northern warm regions of Iran (Zabol, Gorgan, Haji Abad and Sari), nine open pollinated spring oilseed rape lines together with seven cultivars were evaluated using randomized complete block design with three replications in two cropping cycles (2017-19). The results showed that G9 (SRL-95-16) and G12 (OG-AL) genotypes had the highest and the lowest seed yield with mean seed yiled of 3412 and 2507 kg.ha-1, respectively. In this study, seed yield wassignificantly different in different environments. The genotype × environment interaction was investigated using GGE-bioplot stability analysis. According to the which-won-where model of the GGE-biplot model, most of the studied environments were located in or close to the mega-environment 2 which included genotypes G2 (SRL-95-7) and G9 (SRL-95-16) as the best genotypes in this mega-environment. Also, the study of the average tester coordinates showed that G2 and G9 genotypes as superior to all check genotypes like G11 (Dalgan which ranked third) and as the best genotypes considering both seed yiled and yield stability. Also, these two genotypes had the shortest distance from the hypothetical ideal genotype in comparison with other lines and check cultivars. Therefore, considering seed yield and its stability, two genotypes G9 and G2 were identified as suitable genotypes for the southern and northern warm regions of Iran.

Assessment of the adaptation of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) genotypes using non-parametric statistical methods

One of the most important challenges for plant breeding has always been genotype × environment interaction. In present study, genotype × environment interaction was invesitigated for 13 winter oilseed rape genotypes in six cold and temperate cold locations in Iran using non- parametric statistical methods during 2014-2017 growing seasons. Four methods; Hildebrand, Bredenkamp, Kubinger, and De K...

Hidden Effects of Seed Quality Breeding on Germination in Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.)

Intense selection for specific seed qualities in winter oilseed rape breeding has had an inadvertent negative influence on seed germination performance. In a panel of 215 diverse winter oilseed rape varieties spanning over 50 years of breeding progress in winter-type rapeseed, we found that low seed erucic acid content and reduced seed glucosinolate content were significantly related with prolo...

Leaf Senescence, Root Morphology, and Seed Yield of Winter Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) at Varying Plant Densities

In this study, the yield and yield components were studied using a conventional variety Zhongshuang 11 (ZS 11) and a hybrid variety Zhongyouza 12 (ZYZ 12) at varying plant densities. The increase in plant density led to an initial increase in seed yield and pod numbers per unit area, followed by a decrease. The optimal plant density was 58.5 × 104 plants ha-1 in both ZS 11 and ZYZ 12. The furth...
