Abstract :Normal 0 21 false false false TR X-NONE X-NONE This study was carried out at the University of Ankara, Faculty of Agriculture and Field Crops Department experimental field during 2012-2013. Two safflower insert ignore into journalissuearticles values( Carthamus tinctorius L.); cultivars having two different characters insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(spiny and spineless); were used as the study material. The cultivars with spiny insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Balcı); was used as a donor and spineless cultivar insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Yenice); was used as a receptor. Average cross-pollination ratio ranged between 1.12% and 7.72%. The highest cross-pollination ratio was obtained from third experimental design while the lowest ratio was in north direction of forth experimental design. General average ratio was 3.49% in Ankara conditions. There were differences among the experimental designs in respect to cross-pollination. The results of this research showed that cross-pollination ratio decreased when distance between donor and receptor plants increased. /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:`Normal Tablo`; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:``; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0cm; mso-para-margin-right:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:10.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0cm; line-height:115%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:`Calibri`,`sans-serif`; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-ansi-language:EN-US; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;}
