DETERMINATION OF THE EFFECTS OF GENOTYPE AND SOWING TIME ON PLANT GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN CAMELINA [(Camelina sativa L. (Crantz)]
Özet
Appropriate sowing time and effects on agricultural and technological properties of sowing time is one of the most important issues. Therefore, this research has been carried out to determine plant growth and development pattern which effects on changes in agricultural characteristics which are important for growing and adaptation of genotype and sowing time in camelina. Research was carried out according to split-split plot design with three replications that four different sowing times (1 May 2017, 11 May 2017, 21 May 2017 and 31 May 2017) using two camelina genotypes (Ames-26665 and PI-304269). As a result, it was determined that the longest plant length for Ames-26665 genotype was reached at the 1st sowing time, while the highest plant height at PI-304269 genotype was reached at the 4th sowing time. The maximum amount of total dry matter: Ames-26665 genotype was obtained at the first sowing time whereas PI-304269 genotype was obtained at the third sowing time. In addition, the maximal relative growth rate was obtained at the 1st sowing time in Ames-26665 genotype and 3rd sowing time in PI-304269 genotype.
