Correlational Analysis of Agronomic and Seed Quality Traits in Camelina sativa Doubled Haploid Lines under Rain-Fed Condition

Camelina (Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz) is an emerging industrial crop from the Brassicaceae family, with its seed oil and cake being used for food, feed, fuel applications. In this study, relationships between economically important agronomic traits including yield (SY), days to maturity (DM), 1000-seed weight (TSW), protein content (PC), (OC), fatty acid composition in 136 doubled haploid (DH) camelina lines were investigated under rain-fed conditions two consecutive years. There was prominent diversity among studied DH such as yield, erucic acid, omega3, content, etc. Based on Pearson correlation analysis of data, SY positively correlated DM OC, negatively TSW, PC, linolenic (C18:3) content. The positive main characteristics, relevant applications, suggest feasibility developing new higher-yielding cultivars high some (DH044 DH075) during growing seasons showed potential lines. On other hand, contrasting genotypes key study promised a favorable source develop superior breeding higher food/nonfood traits. Therefore, it can be concluded that crucial cultivars. Furthermore, present reports significant correlations lines, which may useful current future program.
