YIELD STABILITY STUDIES IN SHORT-SEASON MAIZE. I. A DESCRIPTIVE METHOD FOR GROUPING GENOTYPES
Tập 58 Số 4 - Trang 1029-1034 - 1978
In recent years, several methods of identifying superior genotypes in the
presence of genotype–environment interaction have been proposed. Fifteen
single-cross maize hybrids, originating from a 6-inbred diallel of short-season
maize, were grown in yield tests over 16 environments from 1969 to 1974. Several
statistical methods for measuring yield stability were applied to the data. The
problems wit...
Cadmium accumulation in crops
Tập 78 Số 1 - Trang 1-17 - 1998
Cadmium is a heavy metal present in soils from natural and anthropogenic
sources. Plant uptake of Cd at levels present in the soil solution is dependent
on a system that is largely metabolically mediated and competitive with the
uptake system for Zn and possibly other metals. Much of the Cd taken up by
plants is retained in the root, but a portion is translocated to the aerial
portions of the plan...
Agronomic and seed quality evaluation of Camelina sativa in western Canada
Tập 86 Số 4 - Trang 1047-1058 - 2006
Renewed interest in Camelina sativa is primarily due to the unique fatty acid
profile of the seed oil and its potential value in industry, cosmetics and human
nutrition. To exploit C. sativa in western Canada, more information is needed on
the performance of this crop in this region. Following a preliminary evaluation
in 2001, replicated agronomic trials were conducted in 2002 and 2005 with 19 C.

CONTENT AND DISTRIBUTION OF TRYPSIN INHIBITORS AND HEMAGGLUTININS IN SOME LEGUME SEEDS
Tập 60 Số 2 - Trang 695-701 - 1980
Cultivars of various legumes including fababean (Vicia faba L.), pea (Pisum
sativum L.), lupin (Lupinus sp. L.), Vigna sinensis Endl. ex Haask vs. Vigna
catjang Walp and soybean (Glycine max Meer) were tested for trypsin-inhibiting
activity levels (TIA) and hemagglutinating (on trypsinised rabbit red blood
cells) activity levels in hulls and cotyledons. TIA in these seeds as a percent
of that in d...
Alternative oilseed crops for biodiesel feedstock on the Canadian prairies
Tập 91 Số 5 - Trang 889-896 - 2011
Blackshaw, R. E., Johnson, E. N., Gan, Y., May, W. E., McAndrew, D. W., Barthet,
V., McDonald, T. and Wispinski, D. 2011. Alternative oilseed crops for biodiesel
feedstock on the Canadian prairies. Can. J. Plant Sci. 91: 889–896. Increased
demand for biodiesel feedstock has encouraged greater napus canola (Brassica
napus L.) production, but there may be a need for greater production of other
oilse...
Influence of N supply on development and dry matter accumulation of an old and a new maize hybrid
Tập 74 Số 3 - Trang 471-477 - 1994
The response of an old and a new maize (Zea mays L.) hybrid to N supply was
evaluated under controlled-environment conditions. An old hybrid (Pride 5) and a
new hybrid (Pioneer 3902) were grown at three N levels (15, 2.5, and 0.5 mM N),
and development and dry matter accumulation were measured at the 4-, 8-, and
12-leaf stage. Leaf chlorophyll was monitored from the 8- to 12-leaf stage, and
leaf p...
Root mass for oilseed and pulse crops: Growth and distribution in the soil profile
Tập 89 Số 5 - Trang 883-893 - 2009
Crop roots transport water and nutrients to the plants, produce nutrients when
they decompose in soil, and provide organic C to facilitate the process of C
sequestration in the soil. Many studies on these subjects have been published
for cereal crops, but little is known for oilseed and pulse crops. This study
was conducted at Swift Current, Saskatchewan, in 2006 and 2007 to characterize
the root ...
The biology of Canadian weeds. 142. Camelina alyssum (Mill.) Thell.; C. microcarpa Andrz. ex DC.; C. sativa (L.) Crantz.
Tập 89 Số 4 - Trang 791-810 - 2009
This paper summarizes biological information on three cruciferous weed species:
Camelina alyssum, C. microcarpa and C. sativa. Camelina sativa, which had been
gathered or cultivated as an oil seed for many centuries in Europe, was the
first to reach North America as a weed, towards the mid-19th century, gradually
spreading across the prairies, mainly in crops, to British Columbia and the
Northwest...
Effect of Zn on the concentration of Cd and Zn in plant tissue of two durum wheat lines
Tập 75 Số 2 - Trang 445-448 - 1995
Irrespective of fertilizer treatments, durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var
durum) Cd concentration was lowest in the grain and highest in the roots and was
in the order: root > leaf > stem > grain. Soil-applied Zn decreased the Cd
concentrations in durum wheat grain, leaf, stem, and root. But, foliar
application of Zn resulted in Zn loading of the leaf and stem and had little
effect on plant Cd ...
The effect of seeding rate, seeding date and seeder type on the performance of Camelina sativa L. in the Maritime Provinces of Canada
Tập 88 Số 3 - Trang 501-508 - 2008
The hypothesis of this study was that spring camelina (Camelina sativa L.) could
be grown as a high-value crop under the moist, cool conditions of the Maritime
Provinces in Canada and seeding date, seeding rate, and type of seeder will
modify productivity and oil composition. The objectives were (1) to determine
the optimum seeding date and seeding rate for camelina production in the
Maritimes; an...
