Popis: | Field studies of water availability during development and glucosinolate concentration in mature seed showed that glucosinolate concentration was closely correlated (R2 = 34 – 82%) with evapotranspiration between anthesis and maturity. Glucosinolate concentration increased with increasing moisture to a maximum and then declined again at high water levels. Oil concentration also increased with increasing moisture availability.Key words: Rapeseed, Brassica napus L., Cruciferae, glucosinolate, water availability |
