SUMMARYThe objective of this paper was to estimate the genetic and ecological variation as well as the stability of tuber yield per plant, tuber number per plant and tuber size of Jerusalem artichoke based on the results of a variety trial carried out with 20 different Jerusalem artichoke varieties during the period of 1994-2000. Significant genetic as well as ecologycal variation was observed for all of the traits studied. The most promissing varieties showing high tuber yield combined with high yield stability were “BT-4”, “Violet Rennes” and “UKR 4/ 82”. It is encouraging that the highest yielding varieties exibited a rather stable performance over environments.

Columbia Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) exhibited satisfactory tolerance to preplant incorporated applications of ethalfluralin, trifluralin, pendimethalin, EPTC and chloramben in field experiments conducted from 1983 to 1985. Applications of metribuzin resulted in chlorosis and necrosis of leaf margins, and reduced plant height. Yield of tubers did not differ significantly between the hand-weeded and the weedy check plots indicating a high tolerance of Jerusalem artichoke to weed interference.Key words: Helianthus tuberosus L., weed control, crop tolerance, tuber yield
