Abstract
Two field experiments were conducted at Ismailia Agric. Res. Station Farm, Ismailia Governorate, A.R.C. Egypt, during winter seasons of 2004/2005 and 2005/2006 to study the performance of three flax genotypes namely Sakha 3, Sakha 4 and Giza 10 under three sowing dates i.e. 1th November, 10 November and 20 November, also Foliar X as balance compound fertilizer using split-split plot design.
Results showed that Giza 10 surpassed all other tested varieties in plant height, technical length, seed yield / plant and per faddan, straw yield / fad., fiber yield plant and per faddan and number of capsules/ plant when sown at 1 November and using Foliar X. Sakha 3 flax variety take the second rank for straw yield and its related characters, meanwhile Sakha 4 for seed yield and its related characters. The greatest yield of straw, fiber and seed per faddan were achieved when sowing flax plants in 1 November with Foliar X as mixture of nutrients.
There was highly significant and positively correlation between straw yield / fad. and each of fiber yield / plant, fiber yield / fad., straw yield / plant and plant height. Seed yield / fad. appeared to be more related with seed yield / plant, number of capsules / plant and technical length. Also fiber yield / fad. was significantly correlated with each of fiber yield / plant, straw yield / fad., straw yield/ plant and plant height.
Path coefficient analysis revealed that fiber yield / plant, plant height and straw yield / fad. has the most prominent direct effects on fiber yield / fad as first important factor with relative importance of 30.4%, 18.4% and 16.5%, respectively of the total variation of fiber yield / fad. The second path coefficient analysis showed that seed yield / plant, number of capsules / plant and technical length had the most prominent direct effect on seed yield / fad with relative importance of 30.2%, 28.9% and 26.3% respectively of the total variation of seed yield / faddan.
