Effects of foliar applied gibberellic acid and benzyladenine upon yield components in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)

Abstract: Sunflower yield is determined by seed number/m -2 and by achene weight. Frequently, a high percentage of empty achenes in the inner portion of the capitulum, probably due to a reduced vascularization of that section of the flower head, decreases final yield . The objective of the present research is to determine if foliarly applied gibberellic acid (GA) and benzyladenine (BA) can enhance the vascularization in the inner portion of the capitulum, improving photoassimilate translocation . Field experiments were … Show more

“…Although growth stages did not respond significantly to MC applications, the seed filling percentage was higher in the V4 growth stage. The increase in the amount of photoassimilates from outside of the sunflower head inwards via different PGR applications, as seen in previous studies (Beltrano et al, 1994), may cause a decrease in the percentage of empty achenes in the middle of the sunflower. This photoassimilate partitioning can increase the number of filled achenes.…”

“…Conditions in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)" araştırıcılar tarafından bildirilmiştir (Nowak et al 1988;Beltrano et al 1994;Cecconi et al 2002;Rahman et al 2004). Almeida et al (1996) Baydar (2000) aspirde yağ oranının artan GA 3 dozuyla azaldığını bildirmelerine rağmen, Bibi et al (2003) ayçiçeğine uygulanan 10-30 ppm aralığındaki GA 3 dozunun yağ oranını arttırdığını tespit etmiştir.…”

“…En kısa bitki boyu 103.5 cm ile kontrol uygulamasından elde edilmiş, artan GA 3 dozlarıyla bitki boyu artmış ve en uzun bitki 121.9 cm ile 400 ppm dozunda belirlenmiştir. Giberellik asidin bitki boyunu uzatmada etkili olduğu, cüce bitkilerde bile bitki boyunun GA 3 uygulamasıyla arttırılabileceği çeşitli araştırıcılar tarafından bildirilmiştir (Nowak et al 1988;Beltrano et al 1994;Cecconi et al 2002;Rahman et al 2004). Almeida et al (1996) Beltrano et al (1994) ayçiçeğinde 150 mg/L, Rahman et al (2004) soyada 100 ppm GA 3 'in bin tane ağırlığının artışını sağladığını bildirmişlerdir.…”

“…Alkio and Grimm (2003) showed that empty achenes are both structurally and functionally connected with receptacle tissue. However, empty achenes in the central whorls have been suggested to be due to constraints in the supply of water and assimilates or lack of space towards the center of receptacle tissue for the expansion of florets and developing seeds (Bettrano et al, 1994). A hollow space was seen in the center of the capitulum when a vertical cut was made from the top down through the stem.…”
