Effects of Micronutrients on Seed Yield and Yield Components of Alfalfa

Journal of Plant Nutrition, 2009
ABSTRACT Effects of micronutrients [molybdenum (Mo), boron (B), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn) and copper (Cu)] on seed yield and yield components (seed yield per unit area, fertile shoots per unit area, number of racemes per shoot, number of pods per raceme, number of seeds per pod and 1000-seed weight) of alfalfa were investigated in the ...

Variability and Correlation Between the Seed Yield, Seed Yield Components and Quality of Alfalfa Seed

2010
Seed yield and seed yield components (stem height, number of stems per m2, panicle branches) and quality of alfalfa seed (germination and mean seed weight), were studied for 3 years of research. Three cultivars of alfalfa from Serbia (NS-Slavija, NS-Medijana and Zajecarska 83) and French cultivar Europe were observed.

Genetic variability and interrelationships of seed yield and yield components in switchgrass

Euphytica, 2009
Information on the genetic variability of seed yield and yield components is limited and no information is available on correlations among seed yield and yield components and direct and indirect effects of the yield components on seed yield in switchgrass, Panicumvirgatum L. Accordingly, we conducted replicated experiments at Chickasha and Perkins, OK,

SEED YIELD COMPONENTS IN WHITE CLOVER

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1979
Components of seed yield were studied in white clover (Trifolium repens L.). Head number and seed size were the major components of yield. Seeds per head was not a significant yield component and was independent of head number.

Seed yield and yield components of creeping bentgrass cultivars

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 2004
Creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) is a high-value turfgrass species that offers opportunities for western Canadian seed companies and producers. The objective of this study was to evaluate creeping bentgrass seed yield and the relationship between seedhead density and seed yield across a diverse range of cultivars.

Seed yield and yield components of castor influenced by irrigation

Industrial Crops and Products, 2013
Abstract An understanding of yield components is critical to the successful development of castor cultivars ( Ricinus communis L.) adapted for different cropping systems (such as mechanical harvest) and growing regions. A detailed study was made on the changes occurring in the castor oil yield components in response to irrigation.

Seeding date influence on camelina seed yield, yield components, and oil content in Chile

Industrial Crops and Products, 2011
Abstract Camelina (Camelina sativa L.) was introduced for the first time in Chile in 2008 as a potential feedstock for biodiesel and also as high omega-3-containing seed oil for the salmon feed industry. The objective of this study was to determine the optimum seeding date to maximize camelina seed yield in South Central Chile.
