| Abstract: | Safflower crop has a good potential in semiarid areas of Morocco. The knowledge of cross pollination rate in our local environment is of a great interest for designing optimal breeding strategies. No investigation has been carried out before neither in Morocco nor in other north-African countries. Thus, a study was carried out in 2009 at Allal Tazi (Kenitra province) to estimate the rate of cross pollination in safflower using high oleic acid as a biochemical marker. Plants of the high oleic acid cultivar 'CR-6' were surrounded by plants of the cultivar 'Rancho' with standard oleic acid content. The observed average out crossing rate was 26.6%, ranging from 8.3 to 53.0% at the plant level, and from 0 to 79.2% at single-head level. According to our results, bagging safflower heads before flowering is of paramount importance to ensure self-fertilization in genetic studies and pedigree breeding |
