This experiment was conducted to study effects of inter and intra row spacing on yield and yield components of sering safflower line (Isfahan-24) in summer sowing in Isfahan at the Agriculture Research Station of Khorasgan Islamic Azad University, during 2002 cropping season. Three inter-spacing row (30, 40 and 50 cm) were assigned to the main plots and three intra-spacing row (5, 10 and 15 cm) were arranged in the sub-plots using a randomized complete block design with four replications. In this research traits as: number of heads per plant, number of grains in main and axiuary-heads, 1000 kernel weight, grain yield were measured and recorded. Results showed that the effect of inter-spacing row on traits such as number of heads in plant and 1000 kernel weight were significant. The effect of the inter-row spacing on the grain yield was not significant. The effect of intra-row spacing on the most of the measured traits were significant. Interaction of inter and intra row spacing on the most of meausured traits was not significant. It can be concluded that 30 cm inter row spacing with 5 cm intra row spacing between plants on the row is the best planting pattern for safflower under the conditions of this study. |
