Chemical quality properties of different oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivars
Özet
Oat is an important cereal as human food and animal feed. In this study, the chemical content of 81 oat cultivars grown in different country of the world was investigated at 3 environments. This study was carried out during the 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 growing seasons in Samsun-Kurupelit and Bafra environments, using a 9×9 alpha-lattice incomplete block design with three replicates. Analysis of the combined data showed significant genotypic differences for all investigated traits. Also, the cultivar × environment interaction was significant for all traits. According to the average of the environments, among the cultivars, protein content varied from 10.28 to 13.70 %, fat content from 3.10 to 6.37 %, starch content ranged from 33.45 to 46.28 %, ?-glucan content from 2.17 to 3.40 %, ADF from 13.56 to 18.54 %, NDF from 31.35 to 37.57 %, K concentration from 3.95 to 6.19 g kg-1, Mg concentration from 1.20 to 1.75 g kg-1, P concentration from 3.07 to 4.32 g kg-1 and Ca concentration 0.30 to 0.52 g kg-1. According to Biplot graph; ADF and NDF values for Dal varieties; K, Ca, Mg and protein ratios for the capa variety; P content for CROA 43 varieties; ?-glucan and starch ratiofor Barra, Yeşilköy-1779, Kermit, Faikbey and Caliber-A varieties were found in the foreground in terms of properties. © 2017, Centenary University.
