Investigation of Agro-Morphological Characteristics in Oat

In this study in which agricultural characters and morphological traits were observed, 8 oat varieties were investigated. It aim was to determine the relationship between all traits examined. The study was conducted in Türkiye (under Kahramanmaraş conditions) for 2 years between 2014 and 2016 with 3 replications according to the randomized block design. As a result of the observations, the following ranges were recorded panicle length (20.8-27.4 cm), plant height (113.4-143.3 cm), peduncle length (28.8-37.2 cm), flag leaf width (1.46-1.83 cm), flag leaf length (15.8-21.3 cm), grain number per panicle (59.7-118.6 seeds), grain weight per panicle (2.57-3.33 g), panicle number/m2 (328.1-489.7 pcs/m2), biomass yield (1926-3031.7 kg/ha), harvest index (13.6-25.1 %) and protein yield (59.7-86.0 kg/ha). The findings are anticipated to support breeding programs and aid in enhancing agricultural productivity.
