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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Exploring environmental determinants of the geographic distribution of broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
Broomrape is one of the most critical biotic constraints to sunflower crop production. In the most extended sunflower crop area of the world, distributed across Black sea region, this parasitic weed shows a high occurrence. ...
Using new Rf inbred lines originating from an interspecific population with H. deserticola for development of sunflower hybrids resistant to broomrape
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2009)
One of the directions in sunflower breeding is the selection for resistance to broomrape. The population of broomrape has been stable in Serbia for a long period of time, but the racial composition has changed in recent ...
Changes of fatty acids content and vigor of sunflower seed during natural aging
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2007)
Sunflower seed aging during storage affects seed vigor and content of fatty acids. In order to reveal severity of their influence, the following vigor tests were applied: standard laboratory germination test, cold test and ...
Development of sunflower genotypes resistant to downy mildew
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Sunflower is attacked by more than 40 different diseases of which only a certain number causes serious reduction of seed yield. One of the most damaging diseases is downy mildew, which is caused by the fungus Plasmopara ...
Vigor of sunflower and soybean aging seed
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
Seed aging and deterioration affect seed vigor and viability. The characteristics of the chemical composition of oil crops seed are related to specific processes occurring in the seed during storage. This study was performed ...
