Investigation of photoperiod sensitivity of Linum usitatissimum L. Lines and effect of short-day conditions on their economically valuable traits

Abstract

Lines of the genetic collection of Linum usitatissimum L. from different ecogeographic provenances are investigated under long- and short-photoperiod conditions. The effect of a short photoperiod on economically valuable traits is established and early-flowering weakly sensitive and late-flowering sensitive forms of flax are selected from a hybrid population.
