Guney, Erdal; Tan, Mustafa; Yolcu, Halil
This research was carried out to compare the yield and quality characteristics of four sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genotypes (i.e., confectionery Tekirdag landrace, confectionery Erzurum landrace, oilseed Sirena and oilseed C70165 hybrids) and one corn (Zea mays L.) genotype (i.e., SZE TC-S13 hybrid) in the Agriculture Faculty of Ataturk University in the east of Turkey during the period between 2005 and 2006. The study was designed in a randomized complete block design with five treatments replicated three times. The genotypes were evaluated in terms of forage properties as well as chemical and physical properties of silages in both years. According to the results, the corn genotype had better yield and silage qualities than sunflower genotypes. But crude protein contents of silages of sunflower genotypes were superior in comparison to the corn genotype. Also amongst sunflower genotypes, confectionery Tekirdag and Erzurum landraces had slightly higher silage qualities than oilseed sunflower hybrids.

Yolcu, Halil; Dasci, Mahmut; Tan, Mustafa; Çomakli, Binali
This study was carried out to determine of nutrient contents of twelve lucerne cultivars in the highlands of Turkey. There were significant differences (p < 0.01) among the cultivars for crude protein (CP), neutral-detergent fiber (NDF), acid-detergent fiber (ADF). digestible dry matter (DDM), dry matter intake (DMI), relative feed value (RFV), total digestible nutrients (TDN), net energy-lactation (NEl), net energy-maintenance (NEm) and net energy-gain (NEg). Although Planet cultivar had the highest protein content (32.00 %). Kayseri cultivar is one of the lowest protein content (24.17 %) among the all cultivars. Neutral detergent fiber in cultivars ranged from 33.41 % (Seker cultivars) to 50.39 % (Kayseri cultivars). Average acid detergent fiber content for all cultivars was 34.31 %. Relative feed value in cultivars ranged from 104.78 % (Bilensoy-80 cultivars) to 185.03 % (Seker cultivars). The average TDN content was 56.89 %. Evaluating for this respect contents were the most quality Seker, Bilensoy and Savas cultivars among lucerne cultivars. In conclusion, Seker, Bilensoy and Savas cultivars among lucerne cultivars had better nutrient content than other cultivars.
