Abstract

Boron is a crucial micronutrient for the growth and development of plants. Foliar application of boron positively impacts the growth, yield, and yield components of oilseed crops. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of boron (B) on some yield and quality traits of linseed cultivars. The field experiments of this study were carried out in spring season of 2022 and 2023 under ecological conditions of Tekirdag. The experiment was carried out as a split plot design based on RCBD with three replications, in which cultivars constituted the main plot with three varieties (Karakız, Sarı Dane and Beyaz Gelin), and boron constituted the sub-plot with four doses (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg L-1) in both years. Boron doses were applied by foliar spraying at 45 DAS. In the study plant height, branch number, number of capsules per plants, number of seeds per capsule, 1000 seed weight, seed yield, oil content and oil yield were investigated. Analysis of variance showed that boron application significantly affected all the examined traits except for 1000 seed weight and oil content. The results showed that the highest seed yield was obtained from 200 and 300 mg L-1 boron application (91.45 and 93.85 kg da-1, respectively). However, the differences in oil content were not statistically significant in terms of cultivar and boron application. In conclusion, foliar application of appropriate doses of boron contributes to increase the yield of linseed, especially in medium and low input farming systems.

Yapraktan Bor Uygulamasının Keten (Linum usitatissimum L.) Çeşitlerinin Verim ve Verim Unsurları Üzerine Etkisi

Abstract

Bor, bitki büyümesi ve gelişimi için önemli mikro besin elementlerinden birisidir. Borun yapraktan uygulanması yağlı tohumlarda tohum verimini ve verim unsurlarını olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada, farklı dozlarda bor uygulamasının keten çeşitlerinin verim ve bazı kalite özelliklerine etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma, Tekirdağ ekolojik koşullarında 2022 ve 2023 yıllarında yazlık olarak iki yıl süreyle yürütülmüştür. Deneme Tesadüf Bloklarında Bölünmüş Parseller Deneme Desenine göre çeşitler ana parselde (Karakız, Sarı Dane ve Beyaz Gelin), bor dozları ise alt parselde (0, 100, 200 ve 300 mg L-1) olacak şekilde 3 tekrarlamalı olarak kurulmuştur. Bor dozları bitkilere ekimden 45 gün sonra yapraktan püskürtme yoluyla uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada bitki boyu, dal sayısı, bitki başına kapsül sayısı, kapsüldeki tohum sayısı, 1000 tane ağırlığı, tohum verimi, yağ oranı ve yağ verimi gibi özellikler incelenmiştir. Varyans analizi sonucuna göre bor uygulaması 1000 tane ağırlığı ve yağ oranı hariç incelenen tüm özellikleri önemli ölçüde etkilemiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre en yüksek tohum verimi 200 ve 300 mg L-1 bor uygulamasından elde edilmiştir (sırasıyla 91,45 ve 93,85 kg da-1). Ancak yağ oranı arasındaki farklılıklar çeşit ve bor uygulaması bakımından istatistiki olarak önemli bulunmamıştır. Sonuç olarak uygun dozlarda borun yapraktan uygulanması, özellikle orta ve düşük girdili tarım sistemlerinde ketenin tohum veriminin artmasına katkıda bulunabilir.
