Effect of planting pattern and cultivar on some quantitative characteristics of canola
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
The seed yield of oilseed rape is a function of population density, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and seed weight. However, yield structure is very plastic and adjustable across a wide range of populations. Canola oil (low glucosinolate and erucic acid) originated high erucic acid rapeseed oil. Previous studies have shown that plant density is an important factor affecting rapeseed yield. Plant density in rapeseed governs the components of yield, and thus the yield of individual plants. Weed competition with canola has reduced crop growth, leaf area and subsequently increased infertile flowers and pods. The field experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with split plot design with three replications. Analysis of variance showed that the effect of cultivar on number of seed, grain yield in pod was not significant. Analysis of variance showed that the effect of planting pattern all parameters was significant.
