Sažetak
Since attempts are made to reintroduce fiber flax into agricultural production of Croatia, it seems useful to point to some of its major properties and economic importance. This paper presents the results of the achieved morphological and phenological traits of fiber flax. Cultivar trials with fiber flax were set up in two years (2002-2003) and on two locations (Maksimir and Posavski Bregi). The trials involved five cultivars: four Czech cultivars (Jitka, Texa, Merkur and Bonet) and one Dutch cultivar (Viola). All cultivars were sown in two densities (2000 and 2500 seeds/m2).
According to the results of the two-years research into the morphological and phenological traits of fiber flax on two locations, significant differences were established between the cultivars and the planting densities under study. Significantly highest values for seed yield were recorded in cultivars Merkur and Bonet. Higher values of the seed yield, number of capsules, number of seed per capsules and 1000 seed weight were obtained with the lower planting density. Cultivars Jitka and Texa belong to the early vegetation ripening group, while cultivars Viola, Merkur and Bonet belong to the full vegetation ripening group.
