Comparative analysis reveals top-performing camelina genotypes for yield improvement in oil crops.
Camelina (Camelina sativa L. Crantz.) is an annual and self-pollinated, well-adapted to cool temperate semi-arid climates with agronomic low-input features. Camelina is resistant to most diseases and pests that are hazardous to oilseed crops. This two-year study aimed to assess the yield and yield parameters of several camelina genotypes to identify the best genotype for cultivation. Several parameters, such as plant height, the height of the first capsule, the number of branches, the number of capsules, the number of seeds in a capsule, 1000 seed weight, seed yield, crude oil ratio, and crude oil yield, were determined. The results showed that three genotypes, namely PI 258367, PI 597833, and PI 311735, performed better than the others in terms of yield parameters. These three genotypes might be recommended for use as oil crops for the oil industry due to their high yield.
