Abstract

Water stress is one of the most important limiting abiotic factors for crop plants. The drought resistance was investigated for 35 camelina doubled haploid lines along with a check cultivar (Sohail), under two irrigation conditions (supplementary irrigation and rainfed), during the crop year 2020-2021. The study was conducted in the randomized complete block design by three replications in three regions of Eslamabad-e Gharb, Mahidasht and Mehrgan. The indices of stress sensitivity (SSI), tolerance (Tol), drought resistance (DTI), mean productivity (MP), geometric mean productivity (GMP), harmonic mean (MH), yield stability (YSI) and drought resistance (DI) were calculated using seed yield in two environments of rainfed (Ys) and supplementary irrigation (Yp). There was a significant difference among regions for YS, Yp, MP, GMP, MH, and DTI indices. MP, GMP, MH, DTI and DI indices had significant correlations with two environments. According to MH, MP and GMP, the highest and the lowest drought resistance were observed in the Mehrgan region and Islamabad region, respectively. Mahidasht showed the highest value of drought resistance and Mehrgan showed the lowest value of drought resistance among the lines based on DTI. In addition, the results of the mean comparison, cluster analysis, principal components analysis and the three-dimensional scatter diagram of the lines based on the yield of two environments and the MP index showed that lines 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 7 and the check cultivar had more drought resistant. These lines had high seed yield in two contrast environments and showed more drought resistance, which is recommendable for breeding programs in the climatic conditions of Kermanshah province.

Evaluation of Drought Resistance of Camelina (Camelina sativa L.) Doubled Haploid Lines in the Climate Conditions of Kermanshah Province

Highlights

  • There is genetic variation for drought resistance among different Camelina lines.
  • Supplementary irrigation increased yield in Camelina cultivation in Kermanshah Province.
  • The indices of drought resistance, mean productivity, geometric mean productivity, harmonic mean and drought resistance were suitable for testing drought resistance in Camelina.
  • The seven lines were introduced for the weather conditions of Kermanshah Province, which had high resistance to drought.
