Canola yield formation under different population and water use levels

Angadi, S.; Cutforth, H.; McConkey, B.; Gan, Y. (2002-02-20)

Optimum population is the foundation for high yields under rain-fed agriculture and the optimum population depends on the water availability. However, establishing a good canola stand in the Canadian semiarid Prairie, where ...
Contribution of kernel size to grain yield potential and sample uniformity of winter wheat

Duggan, B.L.; Fowler, D.B. (2001-02-22)

Improvements in agronomic practices and cultivars have permitted the successful production of winter wheat on the Canadian prairies. In this study, the seed size of eleven winter wheat varieties grown under dry land and ...
Mustard is better suited to the warmer and drier semiarid prairie than canola

Angadi, S.V.; Miller, P.; Cutforth, H.W.; McConkey, B.G. (2002-02-20)

Canola is a risky crop in the warm and dry semiarid prairie. Mustard is reported to be less susceptible to stress, although very little evidence is available to support this view. Nitrogen is the second most important ...
Phenology, canopy development, biomass and grain yield of annual canarygrass (Phalaris canariensis L.)

Xyntaris, Konstantinos (2018-07-03)

Canaryseed (Phalaris canariensis L.) suffers from low and unstable grain yield. This study investigated whether canaryseed phenological responses to air temperature were associated with grain yield instability. Two ...
