OIL, SEASONING PLANTS / WINTER TURNIP RAPE

Brassica rapa L. ssp. Oleifera

A variety of winter rapeseed with particularly high stable yield potential, winter-hardy, resistant to dormancy, excellent disease resistance

Vegetation period - 320-340 days

The average yield is 3.3 t/ha

Harvest potential - 4.8 t/ha

The yield depends mainly on overwintering

Resistance to winter conditions is very good

The length of the stem is 155 cm

Stem leaves cover 1/3-2/3 of the stem (up to 1/3 of the entire plant)

Leaf rosette and lower stem leaves are medium/pale green, covered with small hairs and a waxy bluish upper layer

Good/very good disease and pest resistance

The seeds are reddish-brown

The weight of 1000 seeds are 2.3-2.7 g

Oil content - 48.2%

Protein content in seeds - 31.4%

The content of glucosinolates varies significantly - 4.3-15.1 mmol/g

There is no erucic acid in the seeds

There are no significant differences between the amino acid composition of canola seeds and the amino acid composition of canola

Under different growing conditions than those found in these studies, cultivar parameters may differ from those given here
