This paper reviews the most important biological processes that determine the yield of winter
oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). Biological yield is the product of growth rate and duration …

Reclamation in coastal zones is effective for relieving population pressure and ensuring
food safety. Since the 1950s, the development of coastal zones has entered a peak period …

In the last 40 years, the global use of mineral N fertilizers has increased to support
increasing food demand. Misuse of fertilizer has led to environmental problems in some …

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) has potential to become an alternate oilseed crop in eastern
Anatolia, Turkey. Information on sowing date and nitrogen rate for rapeseed is not available …

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill), one of the most important crops in China, has been
known to man for over 5000 years. Soybean production in China increased from 7.5 million …

The critical crop nitrogen uptake is defined as the minimum nitrogen uptake necessary to
achieve maximum biomass accumulation (W). Across a range of crops, the critical N uptake …

A field study was conducted to investigate the influence of variable rates of application of N
and P fertilizers in splits at various times on the growth and the seed and oil yields of canola …

In pot experiments under controlled conditions we investigated the effects of water stress on
oilseed rape. Yield and yield components were mainly affected by water shortage occurring …

Due to health concerns regarding saturated fat in the human diet, canola (Brassica spp.) is
becoming an increasingly important source of edible vegetable oil because of its low …

The seasonal course of nitrogen uptake, incorporation and remobilization in different shoot
components of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) was studied under field conditions …
