Oil quality, Oleic acid, Seed yield, SunflowerAbstract
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of the most important oilseed crops of the world. Oils with high oleic content maintain oil oxidative stability and better dietary properties for customers. Such oils are known to help in reducing the cholesterol level and prevent heart diseases. In this study, 49 sunflower hybrids were synthesized using seven CMS and seven restorer lines and evaluated along with check hybrid RSFH-1, during 2015-16 at Main Agricultural Research Station, UAS, Raichur. Among parents, four CMS lines had 60-79 per cent oleic acid and four restorer parents had 66 to 85 per cent oleic acid. Out of the 49 hybrids evaluated, two hybrids, CMS-3109A x RHA-1390 (82.01%) and CMS-3114A x RHA-64NB (81.29%), exhibited higher oleic acid proportion., and these two hybrids also showed higher seed yield per plant, high oil content, high test weight and early maturity.
