Abstract
The agronomic performance of eight triazine-resistant single-cross oilseed rape (B. napus L.) hybrids was evaluated. The yield of most of the hybrids was significantly greater than Atr-Regent; some of the hybirds demonstrated mid-parent heterosis, but none of the eight exhibited high-parent heterosis. In most cases the hybrids were intermediate to the parents for flowering date, plant height, lodging resistance, physiological maturity, percent oil and percent protein.Key words: Brassica napus L., oilseed rape, F1 hybrid, triazine resistanceThis publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
