Agricultural Properties of Some Lines and Varietes of Common Vetch from Bingöl (Eastern Anatoila).

Abstract

With this study, yield and some agronomical characteristics of twenty one different common vetch lines (Vicia sativa L.) were investigated under dry conditions of Eastern Anatoila Region of Turkey during the 2014 growing season. Research was established as a randomized complete block experimental design with three replications. The results of variance analyzes showed that there were statistically significant differences among some characters (seed number per pod, P<0.05); plant height, seed yield, crude ash, crude protein and NDF (Pd”0.01). In addition several quality traits; such as plant height, green herbage yield, dry herbage yield, pod number per plant, seed number per pod, seed yield, 1000 grain weight, crude ash ratio, crude protein ratio, neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and acid detergent fibre (ADF) were analyzed and important results were obtained.
