Other claims from this paper (16)
- Observation Seed yield of winter-type faba beans averaged 410 g/m2 (dry matter), about 14% above spring types.
- Observation Environments caused considerable variation in seed yield of winter faba beans, ranging from 275 to 620 g/m2.
- Observation Environments also caused considerable variation in each yield component of winter faba beans.
- Intervention effect Sowing dates hardly affected the yield components seeds per pod and seed weight in winter faba beans.
- Observation Seeds per pod and seed weight displayed stable genotypic rank orders.
- Observation Compensative forces among the yield components plants/m2, tillers/plant and pods/tiller were established.
- Association Plant densities below 10/m2 in spring generally led to seed yield below 350 g/m2.
- Observation Variation in plant density between 15 and 30 plants/m2 due to environments, sowing times or seed rates was frequently not fully compensated by tillering of plants.
- Observation Variation of the formed yield potential was often reduced by pod set of tillers, resulting in 210-270 pods/m2.
- Observation The direction of correlations of pods/tillers with tillers/plant and plants/m2 differed depending on experimental conditions.
- Observation Negative correlations between pods/tiller and tillers/m2 were generally evident.
- Intervention effect Tillering was significantly influenced by sowing time; the increase from early sowing was often covered by compensative effects of different plant densities.
- Observation A genotypic capability to produce reproductive tillers was demonstrated.
- Observation No genotypic capability of tillers to set pods was established.
- Intervention effect No direct effect of environments on pod set was established.
- Intervention effect No direct effect of sowing time on pod set was established.
