“…This clearly indicates interspecies competition between the afila pea and linseed when grown together. These results are confirmed by those of Zając et al [19] who showed that linseed is dominant in a mixture with pea. These authors showed that mutual aggressiveness between linseed and pea when grown together was higher in years with less favorable weather conditions, when the development of one species was overly favoured.…”

“…The seed yield from a single linseed plant showed a highly significant interaction with the growing season and a weaker interaction with the cropping method -sole cropping or intercropping with pea. Similar interdependencies in a canopy of linseed and pea mixtures were found for the competitiveness index (CR), which was higher for a mixture of 'Flanders' linseed and the edible cultivar 'Ramrod' of pea than in a mixture of 'Barbara' linseed and the 'Phonix' fodder cultivar of pea [19]. More complex results were presented by Klimek-Kopyra et al [20], since they indicated that linseed appeared to be a competitor to pea during the vegetative phase.…”

Given the growing interest in ecological intensification directed towards sustainable crop production, a study was conducted to assess the biological and production response of pea intercropped with spring wheat or linseed under various growing conditions. The experiment was conducted in 2009–2011 on a Haplic Phaeozem soil in the western part of Poland. Intercropping of pea significantly reduced the green area index and the normalized difference vegetation index values, but growing pea with linseed caused a significant increase in the number of nodes with pods, pods per stem, and seeds per stem. Intercropping with wheat increased the seed number per pod. Seed inoculation with Nitragina significantly increased the number of pea pods and seeds per stem. Wheat intercropped with pea, with inoculation and foliar fertilization, attained significantly lower straw weight and spike length. Intercropping of linseed significantly reduced the features of the yield structure. Bacterial inoculation increased the production potential of pea at the expense of the supporting plants.

“…There is an increasing interest to diversify the agricultural production systems in order to enhance several valuable eco-agricultural strategies, such as to produce sufficient food and feed, to obtain higher crop protection, to increase biodiversity and increasingly to meet the requirements of sustainable intensification. Intercropping can be a solution to diversify agroecosystems by using more leguminous crops and also applying less mineral fertilizers (Kübler et al, 2006;Gomiero et al, 2011;Branca et al, 2013;Zając et al, 2013;Neugschwandtner and Kaul, 2014;. Previous studies indicated that growing crops in intercrops is an important strategy for enhancing sustainability and yields, as well as to improve soil conservation (Zając et al, 2013;Branca et al, 2013;Klimek-Kopyra et al, 2015;Scalise et al, 2015).…”

Reasonable intercropping could increase crop growth and productivity (Cecilio et al, 2011), efficient use of the resources water, nitrogen and radiation (Lithourgidis et al, 2011), macronutrients (Kübler et al, 2010;Neugschwandtner and Kaul, 2016a;Salehi et al, 2018) and micronutrients (Neugschwandtner and Kaul, 2016b), yield quality (Klimek-Kopyra et al, 2017) and lower the damage caused by diseases and pests (Hauggaard-Nielsen et al, 2001).…”

Summary Intercropping can increase crop growth and yield due to improved resource use efficiency. A two-year field experiment was performed in Shahrekord (Iran) to determine the effect of crop stand composition and fertilizer type on the productions of aboveground dry matter and growth parameters of fenugreek-buckwheat intercrops. Sole crops of fenugreek (F) and buckwheat (B) were compared to the three substitutive intercropping ratios (F:B = 2:1, 1:1 and 1:2). Crop stands were fertilized with chemical fertilizer or broiler litter. Fenugreek could produce in intercrops a similar amount of above-ground dry matter compared to its corresponding share on the sowing ratio. Contrary to that, buckwheat could produce in intercrops more above-ground dry matter than its share on the sowing ratio, especially with a low to medium share of buckwheat. Consequently, the intercrops with F:B (2:1) and F:B (1:1) had an above-ground dry matter yield advantage compared to the pure crop stands of both crops. Broiler litter was more effective in increasing the growth rates and thus the above-ground dry matter production compared to the chemical fertilizer. Thus, growing fenugreek and buckwheat in intercrops fertilized with broiler litter can be beneficial for increasing the biomass production in semiarid environments.

“…In fact, one of its Latin names (Linum usitatissimum L.) means "useful". It has even come to be considered as the third most productive oil crop, after the sunflower and winter oilseed rape (Zajaç et al, 2013). This plant grows to a height up to 60 cm, with slim and very fibrous stems, leaves with three veins, up to 4 cm long and 4 mm wide, and has light blue flowers.…”

The literature data about nutritional characteristics of linseed cultivars from a specific geographical area or country are rather scarce. This is the first study to document differences across autochthonous linseed cultivars in Serbia. Our paper is presenting chemical and mineral compositions of linseed cultivars, their fatty acid compositions and antioxidant capacity of lipid-soluble components, which might be interesting, especially due to the increasing trend of linseed usage in human diet. The examined linseed cultivars statistically differed (p ≤ 0.05) in the content of protein (from 18.9% to 27.0%) and fat (from 34.1% to 40.7%). The highest content of α-linolenic acid (C18:3ω-3) was recorded in the cultivar labelled with No. 5 (61.1%), while cultivar No. 17 showed the most favourable ω-6:ω-3 ratio (0.16). The highest antioxidant capacity of lipid-soluble substances (ACL) was found in cultivar No. 18 -392.4 μmol trolox kg -1 dry matter. Cultivars with higher ACL value have stronger protection against oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Nevertheless, it seems that ACL is more affected by a cultivar, than by fatty acid composition. The aforementioned results could be useful for determination of shelf life of linseed, or its products, while the fatty acid composition of linseed seeds might be one of the criteria for the authentication of linseed origin. The presented results could be of great help in the future selection of the cultivars, depending on the purpose of linseed production.
