Two large-seeded buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.) cultivars, Mancan and Manor, and semi-dwarf lines, were grown at Morden and Portage la Prairie in the years 1979–1982 at seeding rates of 15, 30, 45 and 60 kg/ha. There was no consistent effect of seeding rate on plant height, seed weight (g/1000 seeds) or seed density. In six of the eight location-years there was no interaction of genotype × seeding rate for seed yield, indicating that, generally, the cultivars and lines reacted similarly to differences in seeding rate. It was concluded that a seeding rate of from 30 to 45 kg/ha would ensure optimum yield in most years.Key words: Buckwheat, Fagopyrum esculentum Moench., seeding rates

Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) is a valuable source of proteins, B vitamins, manganese, tryptophan, phytochemicals with an antioxidant effect, and the natural flavonoid rutin. Due to its composition, buckwheat supports the human immune system, regulates blood cholesterol, and is suitable for patients with diabetes or celiac disease. The study aimed to compare the allocation of selected phenolic acids (neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, trans-caffeic acid, trans-p-coumaric acid, trans-sinapic acid, trans-ferulic acid) and flavonoids (rutin, vitexin, quercetin, kaempferol) in the leaves, flowers, and grain of buckwheat cultivars of different origin. The content of individual phenolics was determined by the HPLC-DAD method. The results confirmed the determining role of cultivar on the relative content of chlorogenic acid, trans-caffeic acid, trans-sinapic acid, vitexin, and kaempferol in buckwheat plants. A significantly negative correlation among concentrations of phenolic acids in different common buckwheat plant parts shows that there are different mechanisms of genetic influences on the concentration of phenolic substances in common buckwheat flowers, leaves, and grain. These differences should be taken into account when breeding buckwheat for a high concentration of selected phenolic substances.

Results of a two-year investigation (2005 and 2006) for the yield and quality of fenugreek seed (Trigonella foenum graecum L) obtained on the location in South Banat (around Pancevo) on marsh dark soil are presented in the paper. Fenugreek seed used in this investigation was produced in the collection of the Institute of Medicinal Plant Research "Dr Josif Pancic" in Pancevo. The effect of sowing date on yield (kg/ha) and quality of fenugreek seed (germination energy and total germination) were investigated. Sowing was carried out on seven dates, 10 days between dates of each sowing. Yield of fenugreek seed sowed on different dates differed in both years. Sowing carried out in the first two weeks in April resulted in considerably higher yield compared to sowing at the end of April and during May. The highest yield was produced in the second sowing date from April 10, then in the first (April 1) and the third sowing period (April 20). The lowest yield of fenugreek seed was recorded in sowing carried out at the end of May. Yield of fenugreek seed wasn't significantly different in study years. Earlier dates of sowing resulted in seed of better quality (better germination energy and total germination). In the second sowing date fenugreek seed obtained was of best germination energy and total germination (approx. 99%). Later sowing dates gave seed of lower quality. So, sowing carried out at the end of May resulted in seed with the lowest value of germination energy and total germination (approx. 91%).

Production of environmentally friendly cucumber products is one of the important problems of modern vegetable growing. In the current situation, many issues of cucumber technology using the low-volume technology method require adjustment and further improvement. The purpose of the research was to study and assess the effect of combinations of zircon with biofertilizers against the background of the use of biological products on the growth, development, yield and quality of cucumber. The complex treatment of cucumber plants of the F1 Atlet hybrid with biologically active substances (BAS) contributed to an increase in biometric indicators in comparison with the control throughout the entire crop rotation. The period from germination to the beginning of flowering and fruiting decreased, the plant height increased by 7.2–13.2% and the stem diameter by 12.5–17.5%. The yield was significantly influenced by the growth of the leaf area of cucumber plants, which increased in variants with experimental technologies by 5.9–34%. Under the influence of the studied factors, the yield of standard cucumber production increased by 8.0–27.6%. The mass fraction of fruits that do not meet the requirements of the standard was 6.6–8.1%. On the control variant, the output of non-standard products increased to 10%. The highest net income and level of profitability were obtained with the combined use of Zircon with Ecofus, both against the background of the use of biological products (659.3 rubles / m2 or 38.4%) and without them (685.13 rubles / m2 or 40.1%).

Two buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench.) cultivars, Tokyo and Tempest, were grown in 1971, 1972 and 1973 at 8.5, 17, 34 and 68 kg/ha sowing rates and at early, mid- and late June sowing dates. Tempest lodged more than Tokyo, particularly in 1971. Yield generally declined with each delay in sowing. In 1971, yield increased with each increase in sowing rate, while in 1972 there was no difference due to rate. In 1973, yield increased to the third rate and levelled out to the fourth. Therefore, a sowing rate of over 34 kg/ha may be required to assure good yields each year. Seed weight tended to decrease with delay in sowing but was not affected by sowing rate.

Growth Development

Summary. The effect of plant density on growth, development, yield and quality of kabocha (buttercup squash) (Cucurbita maxima) was examined during 1992–93, at a field site in Cambridge, Tasmania. Plant densities ranged between 0.5 and 4.7 plants/m2. Marketable and total yields were fitted to a yield–density model. Total yield followed an asymptotic trend, approaching 33 t/ha at 4.7 plants/m2, while marketable yield had a parabolic relationship with density. Marketable yield increased to a maximum of 18 t/ha at 1.1 plants/m2, while declining at higher densities because of increased numbers of undersized fruit. Yield of vine marked and callused fruit did not vary with density, but represented a significant proportion of the total yield at all densities. High plant density reduced vegetative growth per plant due to competition for limited resources; as shown by decreased leaf area, number and length of vines, and plant dry weight. Yield tended to decline at high densities because of fewer female flowers and increased fruit abortion per plant. Plants at low densities had more vegetative growth but decreased yields, as increased abortion of fruit relative to the higher plant densities left only 1–2 large fruit per plant. Economic returns varied with plant density. At high densities, variable costs increased (particularly due to high seed cost) while gross income declined reflecting the relationship between marketable yield and plant density. The gross margin therefore declined at high densities.

The effect of sowing time, from late April to late June, on the development, yield and quality of the mid-season barley cultivar, Weeah, was examined from 1970 to 1972 in the Victorian Mallee. The length of the pre-flowering phase decreased with later sowing and there was a quadratic relationship between yield and sowing date. Grain nitrogen varied inversely with yield.
