Evaluation of some morphological traits of flax gene resources (Linum usitatissimum L.) collected within 1955-1971 in Poland
Journal Title: Rośliny Oleiste - Oilseed Crops - Year 2015, Vol 36, Issue 1
Abstract
The research materials were Polish varieties and ecotypes of flax, which were chosen from four genotype groups studied for several years. The following flax traits were studied: plant natural height, stem length (technical length), panicle length, stem number of branches, stem thickness, slenderness and 1000-seed weight. The following values were evaluated for each tested trait: mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviation and coefficient of variation. The least significant differences (LSDs) were calculated for each trait and for homogenous groups determination. Correlation between the examined traits was determined by correlation coefficients. The results of one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicate a statistically significant effect of groups on the plant natural height, stem length (technical length), panicle length and slenderness of plants. Eleven significant correlations were observed between the tested morphological traits. The correlation between the examined traits was also presented graphically.

A multiplex PCR assay for identification of the ogura male sterile cytoplasm and the Rfo restorer gene among oilseed rape breeding forms
Due to the fact that cross-pollination controlling male sterility systems have been developed for oilseed rape, breeders’ interest in hybrid varieties of this oil crop permanently increases. In Poland, a total of 111 oil...
Wpływ przechowywania wybranych olejów roślinnych na kinetykę zaniku fotochemiluminescencji
Badano kinetykę zanikającej chemiluminescencji (CL) w oleju wiesiołkowym, ogórecznikowym, rzepakowym i z nasion żmijowca indukowanej naświetlaniem z zakresu UV-A (315–400 nm), tuż po wytłoczeniu i po półrocznym przechowy...
Cleared-ovule method applied to the evaluation of the effectiveness of pollinations in wide crosses within Brassica genera
An attempt was made to adapt a cleared-ovule method developed by Ponitka and Ślusarkiewicz-Jarzinę (2004) for evaluation of crossing effectiveness in wide crosses within Brassica genera. The material used in this experim...
