The effects of 4 seeding rates (20, 40, 80 and 160 kg ha-1) on dry matter yield, seed yield and yield components were evaluated in 4 accessions (L46, L79, L457, Local) of Hungarian vetch (Vicia pannonica Crantz.) under fall seeding conditions during the 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 crop years. | Turk J Agric For 28 (2004) 179-182 © TÜB‹TAK Effects of Seeding Rates on Yield and Yield Components of Hungarian Vetch (Vicia pannonica Crantz.) Ayflen UZUN*, U¤ur B‹LG‹L‹, Mehmet S‹NC‹K, Esvet AÇIKGÖZ Department of Field Crops, Faculty of Agriculture, Uluda¤ University, Bursa - TURKEY Received: -1 Abstract: The effects of 4 seeding rates (20, 40, 80 and 160 kg ha ) on dry matter yield, seed yield and yield components were evaluated in 4 accessions (L46, L79, L457, Local) of Hungarian vetch (Vicia pannonica Crantz.) under fall seeding conditions during the 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 crop years. Dry matter yield, plant height, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per plant, 1000- seed weight, biomass yield, seed yield and harvest index were measured. Based on the 2-year results, no significant differences were found among Hungarian vetch accessions in any of the measured characteristics with the exception of 1000- seed weight. However, seeding rates significantly affected dry matter, seed yield and most of the yield components. High seeding rates resulted in greater dry matter and seed yield than the low seeding rates in both years.

Ekim Oranlar›n›n Verim ve Verim Ögeleri Üzerine Etkileri Özet: K›fll›k olarak ekilen dört Macar fi¤i (Vicia pannonica Crantz.) hatt›nda (L46, L79, L457 ve Yerli), farkl› dört ekim oran›n›n (20, 40, 80 ve 160 kg ha-1) kuru madde ve tohum verimi ile verim ögeleri üzerine etkileri 2000-2001 ve 2001-2002 y›llar›nda incelenmifltir. Kuru madde verimi, bitki boyu, bitkide bakla say›s›, bitkide tohum say›s›, 1000 tane a¤›rl›¤›, biyolojik verim, tohum verimi ve hasat indeksi de¤erleri ölçülmüfltür. ‹ki y›ll›k sonuçlara göre; incelenen Macar fi¤i hatlar› aras›nda, 1000 tane a¤›rl›¤› d›fl›nda ölçülen tüm özellikler bak›m›ndan önemli farkl›l›klar bulunmam›flt›r.
