| Summary: | Camelina (<i>Camelina sativa</i> (L.) Crantz) is an alternative oilseed crop that is garnering increasing popularity due to its multiple applications and greater tolerance to adverse environmental conditions than oilseed rape. The study analyzed selected traits of 10 Canadian and Polish spring camelina genotypes grown in a field experiment in north-eastern Poland in 2015−2018. The greatest differences were observed in seed yield where the effect of weather and environmental conditions explained 72.7% of variance, the effect of genotype explained 5.9% of variance, and the effect of the genotype-by-environment interaction explained 5.7% of total variance. In contrast, 1000-seed weight was not affected by environmental conditions, and it was differentiated only by genotype which explained 73.3% of variance. Genotype was responsible for 4.5%−25.3% of the variance in the remaining traits. The genotype-by-environment interaction explained 2.0%−18.8% of variance in the examined traits. The additive main effects and multiplicative interaction model (AMMI) revealed that genotype 13CS0787-15 was potentially most suited for cultivation in the temperate climate of north-eastern Poland, Central Europe. This genotype was characterized by the highest seed yields and straw yields, as well as the greatest yield stability.
