Evaluation of oil and grain yield oilseed rape genotypes (Brassica napus. L)
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
In order to investigate rapeseed genotypes in terms of oil and grain yield in the Sistan climate, a experiment was conducted with using of randomized complete block design with three replications in Agricultural and Natural Recourse Research Station of Zahak located in Sistan and Baluchastan province in South East of Iran in the crop year of 2012-2013. The results of variance analysis indicated that effect of the cultivars was significant on the number of siliques per plant, number seed in siliques,height, seed yield, oil percent and oil yield. The genotypes, Dezo 2169, Kho-Be-2, Dezo 3169, had the highest seed yield with the mean of 3647, 3509 and 3433 kg/ha, respectively. From respect to oil percent and oil yield, the cultivar line of Dezo 6182 and Kho-Be-2 had highest amount with mean of 45.2 percent and 1577 kg/ha respectively. The results of the simple correlation of the measured traits showed that seed yield with correlation (r=0.71**) had the highest correlation with number siliques per plant. Based on results of this experiment, lines, Dezo 3169 and, Kho-Be-2, due to high grain and oil yield recommended for the Sistan climate.
