Abstract
The plant material consisted of 20 spring rye cultivars. The field experiments were carried out at two locations in 1997 using a randomized complete block design with four replications. Tillering, plant height, plant lodging, spike length, number of fleurs, spike density, 1000 grain weight, hectolitre weight and grain yield per plant were evaluated. Coefficients of variability and correlation between the characters were determined. The results of variance analysis showed the significant effects of the environments upon all investigated traits with the exception of spike length. Moreover, significant differences between the cultivars were observed for all characters, except a number of spikes and spike density. Genotype × environment interaction was significant for a number of fleurs, spike density, 1000 grain weight and hectolitre weight. Significant and positive associations were found between the following estimates: a grain yield and both plant height and hectolitre weight hectolitre weight and both a number of fleurs and spike density 1000 grain weight and both plant height and plant lodging a number of fleurs and spike length. Negative correlations were found for grain yield plant lodging, hectolitre weight and plant height, 1000 grain weight and a number of spikes, a number of fleurs and spike density and plant lodging, and plant height.
