Broomrape in Serbia from its occurence till today
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2009)
Epiphytotic occurrence of broomrape was observed in Serbia for the first time in 1951, then again at the beginning of the 1990s which continues up to date. It is hypothesized that the new race was introduced by confectionery ...
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 ...
Screening wild sunflower species and F1 interspecific hybrids for resistance to broomrape
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Broomrape has become one of the most important threats to the cultivated sunflower. New sources of resistance genes are needed to maintain sunflower production. The objective of this research was to evaluate accessions of ...
Radiosensitivity of sunflower inbred lines to mutagenesis
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2011)
For much of the past century, mutagenesis has gained popularity in plant genetics research as a means of inducing novel genetic variation. Induced mutations have been applied for the past 40 years to produce mutant cultivars ...
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 ...
Seed dormancy of hybrids and parent lines of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2012)
Sunflower is a plant species with a prominent period of seed dormancy. Physiological maturation period can be accelerated under laboratory conditions using methods for breaking seed dormancy such as: previous cooling at ...
Yield component analysis and diversity in Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.)
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
The objective of this study was to analyze the variability and mutual dependence of the tuber weight per plant, tuber number per plant, average tuber weight and total sugars content in the tubers of 20 Jerusalem artichoke ...
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 ...
Effect of morphological and physiological traits on seed yield and oil content in sunflower
(Institut za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad, 2010)
Path coefficient analysis was used to separate direct and indirect effects of studied traits on seed oil content and seed yield, and to identify traits that could be used as selection criteria in sunflower breeding. ...
