In Turkey, hybrid seeds are used in sunflower oil production, and hybrid varieties are preferred by producers due their features such as high yield performance, superior quality characteristics, uniform appearance, resistance to certain diseases and orobanche (Kaya et al., 2009). Therefore, breeding programs in sunflower in the world are generally directed towards hybrid breeding (Khan et al. 2004;Dagustu et al. 2012). In these breeding programs, the target is to obtain, to develop inbred lines with properties such as high seed yield and oil content, hence high oil yield, earliness, resistance to diseases and pests and so on, and to obtain hybrids with desired performance through them taking advantage of hybrid overgrowth (Vear, 2016). However, it is also very important that these bred lines maintain their superior performance under different environmental conditions. Therefore, knowing the factors affecting the oil yield, yield elements that play a decisive role and the relationships between, in the sunflower, which is an oil
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
