Abstract
This research was conducted to compare different agronomic characteristics of some oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes. The research was carried out in the trial fields of Trakya Agricultural Research Institute, located in Edirne, in 2018-2020. In the experiment, 15 oat genotypes along with 5 standard varieties namely; Kırklar, Kahraman, Küçükyayla, Yeniçeri and Sebat were used. The research plan was designed according to the Randomized Complete Block Design using three replications. In the study, thousand grain weight (TGW), hectolitre weight (HW), relative feed value (RFV), metabolic energy (ME), crude fibre (CF), crude ash (CA) and dry matter digestibility (DMD) characteristics were examined. As a result of this study, all the characteristic values of oat showed significant differences in terms of years except for; DMD. Additionally, all the examined traits showed significant differences in terms of genotypes. The average mean values of TGW, HW, RFV, ME, CF, CA and DMD of examined genotypes showed variation between 24.1-43.2 g, 50.1-62.6 kg/hl, 205.0-328.3, 2.56-2.76 Mcal/kg, 7.88-13.82%, 4.35-5.83% and 73.1-78.3%, respectively. Generally, genotypes 3 and 5 took the first place in terms of grain yield, whereas the genotypes 3, 4, 6, 10 and 11 in terms of grain nutritional values. Consequently, it is concluded that the genotypes 3, 4, 6, 10 and 11 have higher values in terms of the examined traits as compared to the rest genotypes. So, these genotypes would be more suitable for oat cultivation under similar ecological conditions with the expectation of satisfactory economic benefits.
