Abstract

ABSTRACTCanola (Brassica napus L. var. oleifera) is a source of vegetable oil. Abiotic factors may have negative impact on canola productivity. This study evaluated responses of canola hybrids under simulated flooding and drought and excess salinity. Evaluations were performed at 7 and 14 days after germination analyzing the variables percent of germinated seed, shoot length, root length, shoot dry weight, and root dry weight measured. Simulated flooding and drought and salinity detrimentally affected canola germination and initial development. Genotype expressed genetic variability for tolerance to simulated flooding and drought and salinity. The genotype “Hyola 575CL” was less sensitive to simulated drought and flooding and excess salinity.
