Abstract

The study aimed to compare 29 brown mustard genotypes for their agronomic and oil yield traits under fall sowing conditions of Yenimahalle and Ikizce locations (Ankara) during 2017-2018. The result showed significant differences among the genotypes and the locations. Means of the two locations showed oleic acid, linoleic acid and erusic acid in range of 7.42 to 24.54%, 5.81 to 23.97% and 20.87 to 50.25% in the same order. The highest crude oil yields of 124.3 g plot(-1 )and 123.9 g plot(-1) were obtained for AK and A3 genotypes, at Yenimahalle and Ikizce locations, respectively. Among the genotypes. AK (427.6 g plot(-1)) and A3 (373.0 g plot(-1)) genotypes exhibited outperformance with maximum seed yield and was recommended for further evaluation and use in biofuel production industry.
