“…Seed yield was significantly higher with higher doses of nitrogen and the resulting difference as compared to the lower dose was 0.11 t•ha , which guarantees a high yield of seeds. The effect of higher doses of nitrogen on the growth of the yield was confirmed in previous studies by other authors (Jiang et al, 2013;Jiang et al, 2014;Sintim et al, 2015). For the optimal dose of nitrogen for false flax Jiang et al (2013) the camelina requires about 12 kg of kg•ha -1 per 100 kg of expected seed yield.…”

False flax (Camelina sativa L.), is an oil plant, of the Brassicaceae (Cruciferae) family. It is a rediscovered crop with multiple uses, it is a frost proof, low-soil and climatic conditions plant. In Poland the variety is not very widespread, despite of its health benefits. The particular value of camelina oil is given by its content in polyunsaturated fatty acid (50-60%), by its content in omega 3 (35-40%) and by its content in omega 6 (15-20%). The seeds are used for the extraction of oil (used in medicine or as bio fuel) or directly as animal feed. The research was carried out in the years 2012-2014 at the Experimental Station of Cultivar Assessment in Przecław, Poland. The summer Camelina sativa cv. ‘Omega’was used for the experiment. The studied factors were: A-plant density (200, 300, 400 pcs. m-2) and B-nitrogen fertilization (50, 100 kg∙ha-1). With the increase of the sowing density significantly increased plant density after emergence and before harvest, but reduced the number of silicles per plant. Increase in the rates of sowing from 200 to 400 pcs. m-2 decreased the 1000 seeds weight. Sowing 200 seeds m-2 compared to higher norms had significant effect on reduction the number of seeds in silicle, seed yield and the content of the seeds Fe, but resulted in an increase in the content of the seeds Mn and Zn. On the other hand, sowing 400 seeds m-2 caused a reduction the protein in the seeds, K, and Mg, and an increase fat yield and crude fat content in seeds. The higher nitrogen dose significantly increased the number of silicles per plant, total protein content, Fe, Zn in the seeds, seed yield, yield total protein and the percentage of linoleic and linolenic acids, while reduced the number of seeds per silicle, the crude fat content in seeds and the percentage of oleic acid.

“…The percent of oil content in the seed was adjusted to 8% seed moisture content. Biodiesel yield was estimated according to Sintim et al (2015). The estimation assumed 80% extraction efficiency (Kemp, 2006), 10% postharvest loss, and oil yield conversion of 1 kg ha -1 to 0.439 L volume biodiesel.…”

Camelina (Camelina sativa L. Crantz) is an oilseed crop with the potential for dryland crop production in the Great Plains. However, pod shattering may cause signifi cant yield losses. We determined the impact of diff erent harvest times on camelina seed yield (SY), water use effi ciency, protein and oil content, and estimated biodiesel yield. Spring (Blaine Creek) and winter (BX WG1) camelina cultivars were harvested at three diff erent stages, corresponding to the three-digit Biologische Bundesanstalt, Bundessortenamt und Chemische Industrie (BBCH) scales of 805 (early harvest; 50% ripe pods), 807 to 808 (midharvest; 70-80% ripe pods), and 809 (late harvest; >90% ripe pods). In addition, diff erent harvest methods were assessed to identify and quantify other sources of yield loss. Seed moisture contents at early, mid, and late harvests were 14.2, 9.8, and 6.8%, respectively. On average, the SY of early harvest was 9.5 and 23.6% greater than the mid-and late harvests, respectively. Total seed loss incurred during direct-combine harvest was 11.7%, which was attributable to the mechanical disturbance imposed on the pods and the combine settings. Camelina seed oil content was greatest at mid-harvest, but the estimated biodiesel yield was not signifi cantly diff erent between the early and mid-harvests. In general, direct combining when 75% of camelina pods are ripe will provide a balance between SY loss and the seed protein and oil contents.

“…Camelina or false flax (Camelina sativa L.) belongs to the Brassicaceae family and is an important oilseed crop (Waraich et al, 2013;Sintim et al, 2015;Yuan and Li, 2017). It is an annual plant, rich in omega-3 fatty acids and especially alpha-linolenic acid, usually cultivated for its seeds that have multiple-uses (Waraich et al, 2013;Guy et al, 2014;Feussner, 2015).…”

“…Camelina is a low-input crop and is considered to be drought and cold tolerant (Feussner, 2015;Sintim et al, 2015). It exhibits resistance to alternaria black spot and other diseases (Séguin-Swartz et al, 2009;Feussner, 2015;Vollmann and Eynck, 2015), while is susceptible to a range of diseases such as downy mildew (Hyaloperonospora camelinae Gäum.)…”

Powdery Mildew (Erysiphe Cruciferarum) Infection on Camelina (Camelina Sativa) Under Mediterranean Conditions and the Role of Wild Mustard (Sinapis Arvensis) as Alternative Host of This Pathogen

During the growing season 2014-2015, camelina (Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz) plants were naturally infected by powdery mildew at the province of Domokos in Central Greece. Moreover, wild mustard (Sinapis arvensis L.) plants, naturally occurring in camelina field, were infected by the disease. The environmental conditions that influence infection of camelina by powdery mildew were recorded. The anamorph as well as the teleomorph of the fungus pathogen were observed on symptomatic leaves, stems and fruits of camelina and wild mustard plants. Fungal specimens were examined. Conidiophores were cylindrical and comprised 3 cells, while conidia were produced singly; they were oblong to cylindrical and measured 21.8 to 40.5 × 9.4 to 18.4 μm (average 32.1 × 13.9 μm). Chasmothecia were also observed on the upper surface of camelina or wild mustard leaves and on wild mustard siliques. Immature chasmothecia were globose, yellow and turned dark brown as reached maturity. Each chasmothecium contained six asci that measured 47.6 to 74.5 × 29.8 to 44.7 μm. Based on these characteristics the pathogen was identified as Erysiphe cruciferarum Opiz ex L. Junell, being probably the first report of E. cruciferarum on camelina in Greece.
