Genetic analysis of grain yield, days to flowering and maturity in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) using diallel crosses

Interrelationships among oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) grain yield and weed growth under different nitrogen levels

Management of nitrogen fertilization in crops is one of the most important components of integrated weed management. A two-year field experiment was conducted to determine the direct effects of wild mustard aboveground biomass and N content of wild mustard on oilseed rape yield. A set of factorial treatments was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Treatments w...

Genetic study of yield,glucosinolates,oil and protein contents in oilseed rape(brassica napus L.)

Interrelationships among grain yield and related characters of four oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) cultivars under drought stress conditions

Four rapeseed cultivars (Hayola 401, Hayola 308, RGS and Option) were evaluated for some physiological traits under stress (50 % field capacity (FC) and non-stress (irrigated) conditions. The factorial set of treatments was arranged within a randomized complete block design with three replications. The collected data were analyzed using path and factor analyses. These is results showed that...

Assessment of seed yield stability of spring oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) promising lines using GGE-biplot analysis

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 evaluat...

Genetic Analysis of Grain Yield and Yield Components in Bread Wheat using Hayman's Diallel Method

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: By progeny trial after a diallel crossing, the function of genes and inheritance of quantitative traits can be estimated. This increases the ability to select parental lines, to participate in crosses, and determines the management of generations in the segregating populations. Material and Methods: In order to understand the genetic structure of ...

Hormones and Pod Development in Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus).

The endogenous levels of several plant growth substances (indole acetic acid, IAA; abscisic acid, ABA; zeatin, Z; zeatin riboside, [9R]Z; isopentenyladenine, iP; and isopentenyladenosine, [9R]iP were measured during pod development of field grown oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L. var oleifera cv Bienvenu) with high performance liquid chromatography and immunoenzymic (enzyme-linked immunosorbent a...
