Heterosis for agronomically important traits in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2007)
Significant manifestation of heterosis for agronomically important traits is the main precondition for obtaining productive sunflower hybrids (Škorić et al., 2006). Development of high-yielding and stable sunflower hybrids ...
Planting date effects on oil yield in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2007)
Oil yield per unit area is the ultimate target in growing high-oil sunflower genotypes. A research was carried out to determine planting date effects on oil yield, using three sunflower hybrids (Miro, Rimi, Pobednik), eight ...
Influence of aging process on biochemical changes in sunflower seed
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2005)
This investigation was conducted in order to determine the degree of biochemical changes during accelerated and natural aging of sunflower seed. Five sunflower lines developed in Novi Sad, submitted to accelerated aging ...
Seed viability of oil crops depending on storage conditions
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Changes occurring in seed during aging are significant as far as seed quality and longevity are concerned and are a consequence of the effects of different storage conditions. The chemical composition of seed with high oil ...
Development of sunflower hybrids with different oil quality
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2007)
The cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of most important oil crops of the world. Although sunflower is primarily grown for extraction of its seed oil there is a limited production of non-oilseed sunflower ...
Sunflower seed quality and yield in relation to environmental conditions of production region
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
Seed quality is a complex character that is determined by a large number of parameters. Because of this, knowing the interrelationships among these parameters is of utmost importance, not only from the point of view of ...
Effect of silicon on sunflower growth and nutrient accumulation under low boron supply
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2013)
Study was focused on effect of silicon (Si) on growth and nutritional status of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) under low boron (B) external supply. Plants were grown under controlled environmental conditions in nutrient ...
Interdependence of sunflower seed quality parameters
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2009)
Sunflower is an important source of oil and proteins necessary for development of healthy humans. By producing sunflower seeds, the main gains a possibility to use oil and proteins in different forms. The content of the ...
Use of oxalic acid for screening intact sunflower plants for resistance to Sclerotinia in vitro
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2002)
Three sunflower inbred lines differing in resistance to Sclerotinia were grown on nutritive medium supplemented with different concentrations of oxalic acid. After two weeks of culture, plant height, fresh and dry weight ...
Broomrape seed germination on nutritive media and possibility of its biological control
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
In tests of sunflower hybrids' susceptibility to broomrape under artificial inoculation conditions, a high germination rate of broomrape seed used for infestation is prerequisite. On the other hand, one of the ways to ...
