Effect of Nitrogen and Sulphur Application on Yield and Fatty acid Composition of Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) Oil

Abstract: The effects of nitrogen and sulphur on the yield and fatty acid composition of mustard {Brassica juncea L.) oil were studied in a field experiment. Significantly higher grain and oil yields were obtained with N and S application. Applications of nitrogen up to 60 kg ha"' and sulphur up to 40 kg ha"' favourably infiuenced the grain yield. Increasing levels of N decreased the oil content while apphcation of sulphur improved the oil content. The contents of linoleic and linolenic acid were maximum (16.82 and 8.73… Show more

“…It was also due to improvement in protein content (Table III) following N application. This result was in accordance with the studies of Joshi et al (1998). Oil and protein yields were significantly affected by preceding and directly applied nutrients to mustard (Table III).…”

“…In general, fertilization with nitrogen only, i.e. without sulphur, reduces oil production as the seed yield decreases ( Joshi et al 1998). Moreover, water deficit during the stage of flowering and silique formation may result in higher content of proteins and lower content of oil (Bouchereau et al 1996).…”

“…In a study by Bilsborrow et al (1995), rapeseed yield in treatments fertilized with S was 65% greater than in unfertilized treatments. In soils with moderate levels of SO 4 2– –S, S fertilization increased rapeseed and mustard yield by up to 10% (Joshi et al, 1998; Jankowski and Budzyński, 2001; Zukalová et al, 2001b; Barczak, 2010; Šiaudinis and Butkutė, 2013; Table 3).…”

“…In a study by Kozłowska‐Strawska (2012), crude fat concentration was lower in the seeds of spring rapeseed grown on soils abundant or highly abundant in S. Malhi and Gill (2002), Šiaudinis (2010), and Šiaudinis and Butkutė (2013) found no relationship between S application and fat concentration in spring rapeseed. In contrast, Ahmad et al (2007), Malhi et al (2007), Hassan et al (2007), and Kandil and Gad (2012) noted a considerable increase in crude fat concentration in the seeds of spring rapeseed fertilized with S. White mustard and Indian mustard also had greater crude fat concentration when fertilized with S (Joshi et al, 1998; Ram and Pareek, 2000; Ahmad and Abdin, 2000; Malhi et al, 2007; Barczak, 2010).…”
