Du, G.-H., Liu, F.-H. and Rowland, G. 2015. Fiber cell development and fiber yield of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) affected by the seasonal temperature pattern. Can. J. Plant Sci. 95: 1215–1220. Three fiber flax cultivars ‘Ariane’, ‘Argos’ and ‘Viking’ were cultured in growth chambers under three seasonal temperature patterns (STPs) [parabolic (P), anti-parabolic (AP) and quasi-horizontal (QH) configurations]. The effect of STP was studied on fiber cell development and on fiber yield. The results indicated that, compared with the quasi-horizontal seasonal temperature pattern (QH-STP), the size of fiber cell cavity (SFCC) and fiber content (FC) decreased under parabolic seasonal temperature pattern (P-STP). However, the size of fiber cell (SFC) and SFCC decreased, but the number of fiber cells per bundle (NFCB) increased under anti-parabolic seasonal temperature pattern (AP-STP). Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between fiber weight (FW) and width of fiber bundle (WFB), also between FC and NFCB. Considering the response of fiber flax cultivars to the different STPs, ‘Ariane’ had smaller SFC and SFCC, thinner thickness of fiber cell wall (TFCW) under AP-STP, and smaller SFCC and thicker TFCW under P-STP than under QH-STP, while ‘Argos’ had smaller SFC and SFCC, and higher NFCB under AP-STP, and smaller SFC under P-STP than under QH-STP. However, STPs had little effect on the fiber cell development of ‘Viking’. All three cultivars had high FC under AP-STP than under P-STP. These observations indicate that the fiber cell development and fiber yield of flax were related to the STP and suggest that AP-STP are the most favorable temperature conditions for fiber flax growth.

Linum Usitatissimum L

Creation of the initial material of fiber flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) with marker signs is a promising direction of breeding, which determines the efficiency of breeding varieties with improved properties. The purpose of the research was to create initial flax material for obtaining seeds with a marker sign (yellow color) and increased weight. The studies were carried out at the Federal Research Center for Bast Fiber Crops in 2015–2018. In our work, we used flax varieties ‘Smolich’, ‘Antey’, ‘C-108’, as well as forms obtained from these varieties. These varieties were used as control. Nurseries were laid under conditions of a leveled agricultural background. Seeds were sown in a square way (2.5×2.5 cm). The experiments were conducted according to the current methods, including phytopathological testing. Soil – sod-podzolic, medium loamy, cultivated. Selyaninov Hydrothermal Coefficient (HTC) in 2015 was 1.3; in 2016 – 2.2; in 2017 – 1.8; in 2018 – 1.3. During the flax plants selection, we obtained three forms with yellow-colored seeds. Yellow-seeded form No. 1 was valuable from the breeding point of view. It exceeded standard variety ‘Smolich’ in seed weight by 0.8 mg (16.0%), in seed yield – by 0.06 t/ha (9.8%). Form No. 1 belongs to the improved fiber flax line. Form No. 3 had a higher seed mass (5.6 mg) compared to standard variety ‘C-108’. In terms of seed yield and 1000-seed weight, this form exceeded the standard by 0.08 t/ha or 14.8% and 0.49 g or 10.6%, respectively. Form No. 3 is a breeding material for creating varieties of bilateral use. Form No. 2 had signs of the oil flax line. It exceeded standard variety ‘Antey’ in seed yield by 0.18 t/ha (40%); 1000-seed weight – by 0.53 g (11.2%). The created material has a breeding value. It was transferred to the bioresource collection of flax for its replenishment, to the bank of the characteristic collection and was additionally included in the breeding process.

In the comparative variety testing it was evaluated promising material of fiber-flax (Linum usitatissimum L.). The aim of the work was to identify the most valuable cultivar fiber-flax according to their  economic and biological characteristics, and adaptability to adverse environmental factors.  Valuable forms of fiber-flax on the main economically significant features were identified in the Smolensk region. The total length of the stem of A-11 and L-198 exceeded the standard S-108 by 8 - 10%. The duaration of the growing season in all studied varieties was 5 days longer than that of the standard variety.   L-198 exceeded the standard S-108, both in yield of flax straw and fiber content in the stem, the excess was 9 and 3%, respectively. The highest yield of flax seeds (0,58 t/ha) was also in L-198 (21% higher than in the standard). The yield of long fiber in the stem of this sample was 20,1%, which is 0,8% higher compared to the standard. The calculation of the economic efficiency of cultivation of the L-198 variety for fiber-flax seeds also showed its advantage over the S-108 standard.

The results of researches on the influence of the terms of harvesting varieties of fiber flax varieties of different ecological and geographical origin on the productivity of fiber and seeds are given. The optimal harvesting dates for the varieties of Zhuravka, Esman and Kamenyar have been established, depending on the target direction of product use. The highest yield of all fiber of fiber flax was obtained in early yellow maturing term depending on the grade of 3.37 t / ha in the Esman variety and 2.58 t / ha in the Kamenyar variety, and the harvesting of these varieties into other phases of ripeness leads to a decrease of 3,1-15,1%. For the Zhuravka variety, the best harvesting period for obtaining the maximum yield of fiber is the phase of green stiffness – 2.78 t / ha).

Growth Inhibiting

The dependence of the action of lactone-structure brassinosteroids in composition with a growth-inhibiting dose of glyphosate on the root system and the aerial part of fiber flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings was determined. The species specificity of growth responses to seed incrustation by such mixtures was identified. The concentration ranges of brassinosteroids, in which their interaction with the herbicide is most pronounced, were detected. In this case, there is an increase (on spring barley seedlings) or weakening (on fiber flax seedlings) of the inhibitory effect of glyphosate on the root system.

Abstract In this work, we attempted to elucidate mechanisms of flax fiber biogenesis by measuring, using qPCR, expression of the cellwall related genes (cellulose synthase, cellulose synthase-like and chitinase-like genes) in stems of two contrasting fiber quality subspecies of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.). We studied elongatum Vav. et Ell. (cultivar Blakit, Belarus) and crepitans Boenn. (dehiscent flax) subspecies, which are differed in the height of plants, width of stems etc. Amongst all measured genes chitinase- like Ctl19 and Ctl21 genes showed drastic difference in expression between stems of the two flax varieties, showing higher expression level in the fiber flax versus the dehiscent flax. In contrast, cellulose synthase-like CslG4 gene had lower expression levels in the stem of fiber flax than in dehiscent flax. We suggest that hemicellulose composition and cellulose - non-cellulose glycan organisation can vary between stalk cells of different flax subspecies.
