Mostly indigenous sunflower hyrids re cultivted which give low chene nd fodder yields. The issue relted with these hyrids scried to lck of informtion out use of inputs nd culturl prctices. Judicious nitrogen use nd suitle high yielding hyrid ply key role in incresing sunflower productivity. Protein is the sic requirement of the metolic processes for the vegettive, reproductive growth nd yield of the crop. The protein is wholly dependent upon the mount of nitrogen fertiliztion ville in soil for the plnt use. A two yer study ws conducted in 01 nd 013 t Ntionl Agriculturl Reserch Centre (NARC), Islmd, Pkistn. The experiment ws imed to 1 1 evlute the effect of different nitrogen (N) levels (N = 0 kgh, N = 60 kgh, N = kgh, N = 10 kgh, N = 180 kgh nd N = 40 kgh ) on two sunflower hyrids, SMH-0907 nd SMH-0917 to optimize the N levels for otining mximum yield on sustinle sis. Both hyrids were kept in the min plot while N levels in the su plot in rndomized complete lock design with three replictions. The results showed tht the numer of chene hed, 100-chene weight nd chene yield incresed with incresed N ppliction. The incresed levels of N lso enhnced the chene yield. The mximum chene yield ( kg h ) ws recorded t 180 kg N h followed y 40 kg N h. Minimum chene yield (115 kg h ) ws oserved in control tretment (N 0). Polynomil regression line showed tht the rte of yield increse ws higher up to 180 kg N h nd ecome slow therefter. The hyrid SMH-0907 produced more chene (736 kg h ) s compred to the hyrid SMH-0917 (694 kg h ). Results reveled tht economized ppliction of different doses of N cn oost up the yield in oth sunflower hyrids SMH-0907 nd SMH These findings could e helpful in rtionlizing most vlule inputs such s nitrogen in sunflower crop. It cn e deduced tht the 1 ppliction of 180 kg N h cn provide the est comintion for good yield in sunflower crop under the previling humid conditions of Pkistn.

Sunflower seed contins 40-50% oil nd 17-0% protein (Bkhsh et l., 1999). In Pkistn sunflower ws domesticted s oil seed crop in erly sixties. At tht time the totl re under the crop ws 670 h with 480 t of totl production. The re strted to increse in ut with considerle fluctution on yer to yer ses (GoP, 1995). Sunflower is successfully grown in Pkistn under different soil/climtic conditions nd cropping systems. It is mostly in rice (70%) nd cotton (0%) growing res. It is very interesting tht sunflower production is lmost doule ( kg h ) in cottonsunflower re ginst kg h in ricesunflower growing res tht rings country's ntionl verge to 150 kg h. Sindh is the province of Pkistn where mximum re, 60-88% of the totl sunflower is grown in rice frming system. Currently domestic edile oil production is 567 mt s compred to 50 mt of oil which is Rs. 4 illion. (GoP, 014). A numer of iotic nd iotic fctors re responsile for potentil yield of sunflower crop. A fertile soil provides ll essentil nutrients for plnt. As n importnt constituent of protein, N plys significnt role in vegettive nd reproductive growth cusing increse in sunflower yield (Steer nd Hocking, 1984). N hve different role in plnt such s it enhnces photo-synthesis rte (Fyyzul-Hssn et l., 005). The incresed N ccumultion nd dispersion into different plnt prts will enhnce the growth nd development nd ultimtely increse the yield of crop (Khliq nd Cheem, 005). They concluded tht t certin level of fertility, dditionl doses did not further enhnce the yield. The present study is imed to investigte the physiology nd gronomic response of two sunflower hyrids to different nitrogen levels under field conditions. MATERIALS AND METHOD A rndomized complete lock design (RCBD) ws dopted with split plot rrngement. Sunflower hyrids were kept in min plots nd N levels were kept in su-plots (Tle 1). The tretments were repeted thrice. The experiment consisted of five N levels (0, 60, 10, 180 nd 40 kg N h ) nd two sunflower hyrids nmely, SMH nd SMH Experimentl field ws lso irrigted efore seeded preprtion nd field ws ploughed - 3 times, ech followed y plnking.

It ws lowest (0.33) t 40 dys fter sowing in control where no nitrogen ws pplied. Thus the response of LAI t 40 dys fter sowing ws lmost liner up to 180 kg N h ut reverse trend ws oserved eyond tht point. The polynomil regression nlysis (Figure1) showed strong positive correltion (R =0.849) etween nitrogen levels nd LAI fter 40 dys of sowing. The effect of yer t 40 dys fter sowing ws highly significnt (P< 0.01). Results showed 6% higher LAI t 40 dys fter sowing in 013 thn 01 (Tle 5). The hyrid SMH-0917 showed higher LAI t 40 dys fter sowing thn the hyrid SMH-0907 (Tle 6). Interctive effect of N level x yer ws significnt while ll other such effects were non-significnt (Tle 4). The min effect of yer, hyrid nd nitrogen level were highly significnt (P< 0.01) on LAI t 65 dys fter sowing. The LAI ws significntly incresed with the increse of nitrogen fertilizer up to 180 kg h nd there ws decrese therefter (Figure 1). Results showed tht the highest LAI (4.5) ws recorded t 65 dys. With the ppliction of 180 kg N h s compred to 1.68 in control (Figure 1). This shows 168% increse over control. The polynomil regression nlysis lso showed strong positive correltion (R = 0.943) etween nitrogen levels nd LAI t 60 dys fter sowing. The higher LAI t optimum N level could e scried to the higher rte of cell division followed y enlrgement Tle 5.

The response of sunflower hyrids ws lso significnt, s SMH-0907 showed 1% higher LAI t 65 dys fter sowing thn SMH Yer wise effect showed tht LAI t 65 dys ws greter (1%) during 013 s compred to 01. This could e scried to the fvorle wether conditions. Similr effect ws lso reported y Dr et l. (009) who climed tht yer (environment) hd significnt effect on LAI. These results re in conformity with Nsim et l. (011) who oserved tht the growing conditions s well s seson hd significnt effect on mximum LAI t 65 dys fter sowing throughout the growth. Hrvest Index(HI) The interctive effect of N level x hyrid nd N level x yer ws highly significnt on hrvest index (HI) wheres remining types of interction were non-significnt. The min effect of nitrogen, yer nd hyrid were lso highly significnt (Tle 4). All the five nitrogen tretments gve significntly different HI from ech other. Polynomil regression line lso confirmed tht the rte of HI increse ws higher up to 180 kg N h nd ecome slower therefter. Regression nlysis lso demonstrted strong correltion (R = 0.984) etween nitrogen ppliction nd HI (Figure 1). The result showed tht s nitrogen ppliction is incresed the HI goes on incresing which endorsed tht more photossimiltes hve een chnnelized into chene yield with increse in nitrogen ppliction. This results in high HI. The increse in HI from 1% to 5% ws oserved with ppliction of 600 kg N h. These results mtched with those of Ysin et l. (013) who reported significnt response of HI to Figure 1. Effect of N level on hrvest index (%) vrious N levels. The HI ws 6% greter in 013 thn 01 (Tle 6). Similrly, the hyrid SMH-0907 gve 5 % more HI thn the hyrid SMH-0917 (Tle 5). These results hve show the reltive dominnce of SMH-0907 over SMH-0917 to utilize photo-ssimiltes into chene yield. Sinclir (1998) hs lso reported the pproch of reltive dominnce in sunflower hyrid with respect to hrvest index. The effect of two wy interction of hyrid x N level on HI ws highly significnt. In hyrid N interctions, mximum HI (4.86) ws given y hyrid SMH-0907 with N level of 180 kg h while minimum HI (18.99) ws ttined y SMH-0917 from control plot without nitrogen ppliction (Tle 7).

All the nitrogen levels expressed significntly different effects on 100-chene weight from ech other (Figure ). The polynomil regress-ion nlysis showed tht there ws strong positive correltion (R = 0.863) etween nitrogen levels nd 100- chene weight.

The highest 100-chene weighs (7. g) ws otined from the ppliction of 180 kg N h followed y the ppliction of 10 kg N h (6 g). This increse in 100-chene weight ws 89% nd 57%, respectively over control (3.85g). The hyrid SMH-0907 produced 1% (6.07g) higher 100-chene weight thn SMH- 0917(5.03 g) (Tle 5). Therefore, hyrid SMH-0907 ws comprtively more effective over SMH-0917 for 100-chene weight. Significntly greter 100-chene weight ws hrvested in 013 thn 01 (Tle 6). The increse in 100-chene weight ws 1% (6.07 g vs g) in 013 s compred to the 01. These findings re lso in line with those of Ghni et l. (000), Zuillge et l. (00), Killi (004) nd Adel-Motglly nd Osmn (010) who oserved greter 100-chene weight with incresed level of nitrogen ppliction. All interctive effects s well s min effects highly significntly ffected the numer of chene per hed except the effect of yer (Tle 4). The two wy interction of yer x hyrid showed tht
8 the mximum chene per hed (799) were noted on hyrid SMH-0907 in 013 wheres the minimum numers of chene per hed (73) were produced y hyrid SMH-0917 in the sme yer (Tle 8). In hyrid x N fertilizer level interction, the highest numer of chene per hed (944) ws otined y hyrid SMH-0907 with 180 kg N h while the lest numer of chene per hed (639) ws ttined y hyrid SMH-0917 from control plot (Tle 7). In three wy interctions, yer x hyrid x N level, the highest numer of chene per hed (946) ws produced y hyrid SMH-0907 with 180 kg N h during the 013 wheres the lowest numer of chene per hed (605) ws produced y hyrid SMH-0917 during 01 in control plot. Results showed tht numer of chene per hed increses s nitrogen ppliction rte is incresed, showing mximum numer of chene per hed (897) with ppliction of 180 kg N h wheres the minimum numer of chene per hed (64) were hrvested from the plots with no nitrogen ppliction (Figure ). There is s much s 40% increse in numer of chene per hed over control where no nitrogen ws pplied. On the whole, nitrogen ppliction showed n increse of 7-40% y ppliction of kg N h over the control. However, eyond 180 kg N h, there ws negtive effect of N level on numer of chene per hed (Figure ). The polynomil line lso reveled tht the rte of nitrogen fertilizer increses the numer of chene per hed up to 180 kg N h nd showed negtive effect fterwrd (Figure Tle 8. DOULAT BAIG ET AL d e c Y = 3.4x x R = NO ACH Poly. (NO ACH-) ). The regression coefficient lso showed highly positive correltion (R = 0.877) etween the nitrogen rtes nd numer of chene per hed. The increse in numer of chene per hed my e ttriuted to more vegettive growth nd viility of chene (seed setting) due to nitrogenous fertilizer. These results re lso in line with those of Killi (004) nd Oliveri et l. (01) who lso climed tht the higher nitrogen rtes significntly increses the numer of chene per hed. The nitrogen ffects numer of chene per hed y influencing numer of growth prmeters such s LAI, plnt height, growth rte etc nd thus more vigorous growth nd development (Bindr nd Khrwr, 199 nd Srmh et l., 199). Numer of chene per hed hs n importnt role s prt of finl chene yield. Ysin et l. (013) reported tht numer of chene per hed is n importnt yield component which contriutes mterilly towrds finl chene yield of sunflower.

9 RESPONSE OF SUNFLOWER HYBRIDS TO DIFFERENT NITROGEN LEVELS yer x N level nd N level x hyrids x yer did not significntly ffect chene yield of sunflower hyrids (Tle 4). However the effect of interction of yer x hyrid nd hyrid x N level significntly ffected the chene yield. This shows tht the sunflower hyrids response differently to vrious levels of N under different environmentl conditions for yield. For exmple the highest chene yield (343.8 kg h ) ws produced y the hyrid SMH-0907 with 180 kg N h while the lowest chene yield (085 kg h ) ws produced y the hyrid SMH t control (Tle 7). Similrly, the highest chene yield (850 kg h ) ws produced y the hyrid SMH-0907 during 013 wheres the lowest yield ws lso hrvested from the sme hyrid during 01 (Tle 8). Adel- Motglly nd Osmn (010) lso reported the differentil response of sunflower genotypes to different N levels nd environmentl conditions. Results showed tht the effects of nitrogen nd yer were highly significnt nd effect of hyrid ws nonsignificnt (Tle 4). There ws significnt difference etween nitrogen levels for chene yield (Figure 3). The mximum chene yield of 3170 kg h d c ws chieved t the ppliction of 180 kg N h which is lmost doule yield over control (114.7 kg). The polynomil regression nlysis (Figure 3) reveled tht there is strong positive correltion (R = 0.975) etween N ppliction nd chene yield. The clculted optimum level of N for mximum yield is 180 kg h. However, incresing of N level eyond 180 kg h cuses reduction in the chene yield. The dt revels tht the optimum level of N improves sunflower plnt growth with vigorous growth rte, high lef re index, more numer of chene per hed nd 100-chene weight which results in increse of the chene yield. Mny erlier workers such s Ghni et l. (000), Zuillge et l. (00) Killi (004) nd Aedel-Motglly nd Osmn (010) lso reported greter response in chene yield with nitrogen ppliction. They viewed tht the fvorle level of N levels incresed the size nd numer of leves which increse LAI. Thus higher photosynthetic rte nd more fvorle condition led to good seed setting nd higher 100-chene weight which in turn incresed chene yield. It cn e thus deduced tht the y = -84.5x x R = ACY (kg) Poly. (ACY (kg)) Figure 3. Effect of N level on chene yield kg h )

However, optimum N level increses chene yield nd eyond tht level there is negtive effect on chene yield of sunflower. Under groecologicl condition of Islmd the ppliction of 180 kg N h is the optimum level for chieving the mximum chene yield. LITERATURE CITED Adel-Motglly, F.M.F. nd E.A.
