EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS ON THE YIELD AND YIELD COMPONENT OF FALSE FLAX (Camelina sativa L.) CRANTZ)

33893

This study was carried out under the ecological conditions of Ankara in 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 vegetation season. The experiment was laid out In The Randomized Complete Block in a Split Plot Design with three replications. The different phosphorous doses (0, 3, 6 and 9 kg P2O5/da) and different nitrogen doses (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 kg N/da) were randomized into main and sub plots, respectivelly. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of different phosphorous doses and nitrogen doses on the plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, 1000 seed weight (g), the seed yield (kg), oil content (%) and fatty acid compositions in false flax (Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz). In 2011-2012 vegetation season, mean data for plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, 1000 seed weight (g), the seed yield (kg) and oil content (%) among different phosphorous doses and nitrogen doses ranged from 52.7cm to 66.0 cm, 3.7 to 8 number, 1.81 to 1.31 g, 87.53 to 181.13 kg/da and 23.67 to 31.73% respectively. In 2012-2013 vegetation season, mean data for plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, 1000 seed weight (g), the seed yield (kg) and oil content (%) among different phosphorous doses and nitrogen doses ranged from 116.4 to 129.7 cm, 5 to 9.7 number, 1.19 to 1.48 g, 106.61 to 419.82 g and 24.23 to 32.3% respectively. According to in this study, the highest seed yield were obtained from the application of 6 kg/da of phosphorus and 15 kg/da of nitrogen in the appropriate precipitation conditions.
