Field experiments were carried out during 2005-2007 in order to study the genetic structure
of a hybrid sunflower population, to identify the parents and crosses showing superior …

Twenty-one hybrids of sunflower were produced by crossing 7 introduced cytoplasmic male
sterile lines (CMS-lines) with 3 restorer lines (RF-lines) using line× tester mating design. The …

Seed yield stability, being strong influenced of environmental factors, remains the most
important objective of sunflower breeding. In present research have been assessed 8 yield …

Stvaranje novih hibrida suncokreta sa visokim genetskim potencijalom za prinos semena na
osnovu interspecijes hibridizacije zahteva posedovanje informacija o načinu nasleđivanja i …

Abstract ENCHEVA, J., G. GEORGIEV and E. PENCHEV, 2015. Heterosis effects for
agronomically important traits in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21 …

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) has been broadly considered as a plant capable to grow
under low water-input regimes. Besides, remote and domesticated sunflower ecotypes have …

Esta investigación se ha realizado para investigar la dirección y la dimensión de heterosis
en los veinticuatro mestizajes correspondiendo con las características cabezales …

Sixteen sunflower hybrids obtained by crossing between four CMS and four restorer lines as
tester were evaluated for combining abilities of agronomic traits under optimum and water …

Better understanding of the relationships between seed yield and agronomic traits could
facilitate sunflower breeding programs. In this study, twenty sunflower hybrids were …

The climate is continuously changing, consequently increasing the drought-affected areas.
As such, it challenges breeders to develop adaptive and drought-tolerant sunflower …
