Description
Summary:Red River 1997 summer rape (Brassica napus L.) is the world's third Roundup Ready high erucic acid, low glucosinolate cultivar. On average, Red River 1997 yielded 13% more seed and 22 g kg super(-1) more seed oil, but 4 g kg super(-1) less meal protein than MillenniUM 03 high erucic acid, low glucosinolate summer rape. Red River 1997 has an erucic acid content of 51.4% in isolated field trials of HEAR lines and is adapted to the southern B. napus growing regions of western Canada.Original Abstract: Red River 1997 est la troisieme variete de colza (Brassica napus L.) a haute teneur en acide erucique Roundup Ready super(MC) et a faible teneure en glucosinolates au monde. En moyenne, Red River 1997 donne 13 % plus de graines que la variete a forte teneur en acide erucique et a faible teneur en glucosinolates MilleniUM 03, et ses graines renferment 22 g par kg de plus d'huile mais 4 g par kg de moins de tourteau que cette variete. Lors des essais isoles sur le terrain des lignees a forte teneur en acide erucique, Red River 1997 a revele une teneur en acide erucique de 51,4 %. Le cultivar est adapte aux zones de culture australes de B. napus dans l'ouest du Canada.
