| Popis: |
Oilseed rape has a high requirement for sulphur and is particularly sensitive to any shortfall in sulphur supply. Yield responses of oilseed rape to sulphur supply have been reported in many countries. Soil sulphur content has been found to influence the level of yield response from a site and results indicate that correct sulphur nutrition is critical for double low varieties. An interaction between nitrogen and sulphur has been noted, indicating that there is a requirement to balance application of these nutrients for optimum response. The response of oil content to sulphur application is less consistent than that of yield, but increases in oil content appears more likely where a low sulphur status occurs. Small changes in fatty acid composition may occur. Differences in protein content according to sulphur application are usually small and associated with sulphur deficiency. Content of sulphur bearing amino acids may be reduced at low sulphur conditions. |
