Thirty-six genotypes including eight parents and their 28 crosses developed in diallel fashion excluding reciprocals were used to studied their stability performance over six contrasting environments viz., early, normal and late sown under rainfed and irrigated conditions for seed yield and its contributing characters. Genotype x Environment interaction and Linear component of G x E interaction were showed significant for all the characters except plant height, secondary branches per plant and biological yield per plant under study. The parents Meera and PA2 showed stable performance for two characters and rest of the genotypes showed stable performance for one character over a range of environments under study. The cross Meera x RL13161 and RL15583 x KBA3 showed stable performance for seed yield and two crosses RL13161 x KBA3 and RL15583 x KBA3 showed stable performance for oil content and rest of four crosses showed stable performance for other characters.

Five flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) cultivars, Dufferin, McGregor, Linott, NorLin and NorMan were grown in the field in 1985, 1986 and 1987 at seeding rates of 200, 400, 600 and 800 seeds m−2. Averaged over all cultivars and years, as seeding rate increased from 200 to 800 seeds m−2, maturity was hastened 2.1 d, seed weight decreased 0.16 g 1000−1 seeds, oil content decreased 0.6%, iodine number decreased 1.3 units and volume weight was not markedly changed. Lodging increased and basal branching decreased from 1.68 to 0.18 branches per plant as seeding rate increased. Plant height increased 0.6 cm from the 200 to the 400 seeds m−2 rate then decreased 1.8 cm from the 400 to the 800 seeds m−2 rate. Seed yield increased from 110 to 124 g m−2 as seeding rate increased from 200 to 600 seeds m−2, then decreased to 121 g m−2 at 800 seeds m−2. Although yields of the five cultivars varied somewhat in their response to seeding rate and year, most yielded near optimum at the 600 seeds m−2 seeding rate.Key words: Flax, Linum usitatissimum L., seeding rate, lodging

CDC Neela, a medium–late-maturing oilseed flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), was released in 2013 by the Crop Development Centre, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. This cultivar has medium oil content, medium oil quality, medium seed size, good lodging resistance, and high seed yield in all soil zones of the Prairies. It is immune to North American races of rust caused by Melampsora lini, and moderately resistant to wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini.

The influence of the level of mineral nutrition and rate of seed sowing on yield and fatty acid composition of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) in the Non-chernozem zone of Russia was studied. It was shown that the level of mineral fertilizers N - 90, P2O5 - 60, and K2O - 60 kg/ha under the rate of sowing of 8 million seeds/ha provided maximum seed yield of 1.94 t/ha. A clear correlation between oil content and rate of sowing has not been established. Under an increasing level of mineral nutrition, oil content was slightly increased. The composition of oil was slightly changed under the influence of the studied factors.

Stability performance of 30 linseed genotypes including commercial cultivars and elite lines (indigenous and exotic) was compared by using regression on environmental means for grain yield and its components under 5 different environments during rabi 2013-2014. Significant differences were observed among the genotypes for all the traits studied over all 5 individual environments. Genotype × environment interactions were highly significant for all the characters studied. E + (G × E) was significant for all the characters except the number of seeds per capsule. Mean sum of squares for environment (linear) showed significance for all the characters. Significant differences for G × E (linear) were observed for 5 traits viz., primary branches per plant, secondary branches per plant, aerial biomass yield per plant, seed yield per plant and 1000-seed weight. Based on mean performance, regression coefficient (bi) and deviation from regression (S2di) the genotype Him Alsi-2, KL-241 and Nagarkot was highly stable for seed yield (g) and number of capsules per plant was found most adaptive to overall environments. These promising genotypes may be utilized as donors in linseed improvement program for target ecosystems.

The aim of the study was to determine the genotype x environment interaction and stability performance of fifteen rice hybrids in three different production seasons during 2016, 2017 at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Warangal, Telangana.  Data was subjected to the additive mean effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) analysis, results indicated that significant genotype x environmental interaction (GEI) influenced the relative ranking of the hybrids across the seasons. It was evident from AMMI analysis that first two principal components accounted for 94.09%, which is enough to explain the variability among the hybrids. The hybrids, G9 (WGRH 18), G8 (WGRH-17) and G12 (WGRH-22) and G3 (WGRH-10), exhibited high grain yield. The AMMI 2 biplot revealed that the rice genotype, G15 (WGL-14), close to the origin indicated non sensitive nature of this genotype with the seasons and highly stable genotype across the environments with low yield potential when compared to hybrids. Whereas the rice hybrids, G9 (WGRH-18), G8 (WGRH-17), G3 (WGRH-10) and G5 (WGRH-14), were also close proximity to origin and have limited interaction with the seasons. The rice hybrid, G9 (WGRH-18), has high mean yield with stable performance over three environments being the overall best can be considered for the release after through conformation.

Combining ability and heterosis were calculated for fourteen lines of linseed in a line × tester mating design using twelve lines and two diverse testers in two different environments. The hybrids and parental lines were raised in a completely randomized block design with three replications to investigate seed and fibre yield and their component traits. Genetic variation was significant for most of the traits over environments. Combining ability studies revealed that the lines KL-221 and LCK-9826 were good general combiners for seed yield and most of its components, whereas LMH-62 and LC-2323 were good general combiners for yield components only. Moreover, KL-221 was also a good general combiner for fibre yield. Similarly, B-509 and Ariane were good general combiners for fibre yield and most of its components. Among the specific cross combinations, B-509 × Flak-1 was outstanding for seed yield per plant and B-509 × KL-187 and LC-2323 × LCK-9826 for fibre yield per plant, with high SCA effects. In general, the hybrids excelled their respective parents and the standard checks for most of the characters studied. Based on the comparison of mean performance, SCA effects and the extent of heterosis, the hybrids LC-2323 × LCK-9826 and B-509 × KL-221 appeared to be the most promising for both seed and fibre yield. Other promising combinations were LC-2323 × KL-210 and B-509 × Ariane for seed and fibre yield, respectively. The superiority of LC-2323, LCK-9826, KL-221, B-509 and Ariane as good general combiners was further confirmed by the involvement of these parents in the desirable cross combinations.
