Popis: Due to its composition the oilseed rape is widely used in the production of oil, animal feed and biodisel production. Due to a wide range of rapeseed use, the aim of this paper was to determine the influence of genotype, production year and planting density on seed germination, seed moisture content, mass of 1000 seed, hectoliter mass, seed yield per plot, and oil and protein content in the seed. Tests were carried out on four rapeseed genotypes sown at a distance of 5 cm (80 plants/m2), 10 cm (40 plants/m2), 15 cm (27 plants/m2) and 20 cm (20 plants/m2) within the raw during 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 vegetation period. Seed germination, hectoliter mass and seed yield depended on production year, mass of 1000 seeds depended on genotype, plant density and production year, while the oil and protein content depended on genotype and production year.
