Analysis of relationships between seed yield and quantitative traits of oliseed flax ([i]Linum usitatissimum [/i]L.)

Journal Title: Rośliny Oleiste - Oilseed Crops - Year 2013, Vol 34, Issue 2

Abstract

The aim of the presented study was to determine the relationship between seed yield of eighteen genotypes of flax and selected quantitative traits and an investigation of correlations between analyzed traits. Seed yield was chosen as the reference trait due to the fact that it has a decisive influence on the economic value of flax varieties. The influence of plant height, technical length, panicle length, stem diameter, number of branches and 1000 seeds weight on the total seed yield was defined. Multiple regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship. In the two years of the experiment fifteen pairs of traits were characterized by a statistically significant interdependence. Multiple regression analysis showed, however, that the weight of the seeds tested was mostly influenced by the straw yield and weight of 1000 seeds.
