ABSTRACT
The main objective of this
study was to select the best accessions for use as potential breeding sources
in Thua Thien Hue province. A total of 16 accessions were used in this study, of which three accessions from Ho
Chi Minh city in Vietnam, four accessions supplied by Japan, six accessions collected from China, two accessions provided
by the United States and one Mè Vàng local
accession (control) from Thua Thien Hue. The field experiment was conducted
from August 2016 to November 2016 and laid out in a random complete block design (RCBD) for
three replications at Huong Long ward, Hue city, Thua Thien Hue province.
Each accession was observed 10 plants
per replication. The size of each plot was 10 m2 and the spacing of 25 cm × 10 cm was applied. The results showed that experiment accessions can grow under Thua Thien Hue conditions. Of those,
the actual yield of VV12, VDM21, VH12, VDM50, VH01 and VDM45
were higher than the other accessions with 1.65, 1.64, 1.55, 1.54, 1.52 and
1.45 tons/ha, respectively. Oil content of these six accessions was above 50%. Therefore, VV12,
VDM21, VH12, VDM50, VH01 and VDM45 can be used for breeding
and cultivation under local condition.
