CP23307Potential of increasing yield of spring Brassica napus canola by using Brassica rapa gene pool with emphasis on yellow sarson
To improve yield in canola, a wider gene pool is needed. We demonstrated that seed yield can be improved in inbred as well as hybrid canola using genes from the genetically distinct oilseed yellow sarson, a related species from Asia. The knowledge gained and germplasm developed from this research can be used by breeders and researchers to develop improved canola cultivars.
