Evaluation of Spring Canola (Brassica Napus) Lines Derived from Rutabaga (Brassica Napus Var. Napobrassica) X Canola Crosses for Agronomic and Seed Quality Traits and Heterosis
DownloadSpring 2018
Brassica napus L. (AACC, 2n = 38) canola is the most extensively cultivated Brassica oilseed crop in the world; it is one of the most important field crops in Canada. The narrow genetic diversity in this crop is considered one of the major hindrances for continued improvement of this crop for...

Genetic and molecular analysis of clubroot resistance in canola introgressed from rutabaga cvs. Polycross and Brookfield
DownloadFall 2022
Clubroot disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae is a serious threat to canola (Brassica napus) production. The evolution of new pathotypes has rendered available resistances ineffective and has necessitated the introgression of new resistance into canola and furthering our understanding of...

Genetic study on Brassica rapa and Brassica napus for seed color and identification of molecular markers
DownloadFall 2012
Yellow seed in Brassica oilseed crops is favoured for its association with lower fibre and higher oil contents. Yellow-seeded Brassica napus lines have been developed through introgression of this trait from its allied species; however, the trait in B. napus is often influenced by environmental...

Improving Verticillium longisporum inoculation protocols and quantifying canola yield losses
DownloadSpring 2024
Verticillium stripe, caused by Verticillium longisporum, is an emerging soilborne disease of the Canadian canola (Brassica napus) crop. This study aimed to refine techniques for inoculating the pathogen on canola and to quantify its impact on hybrid canola yield under greenhouse and field...

Introgression of Clubroot Resistance from Brassica oleracea into B. napus Canola through Interspecific Cross
DownloadSpring 2022
Clubroot disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin is a serious threat to canola production in Canada. Most of the available clubroot-resistant canola cultivars carry major resistance genes of the Brassica A genome. However, the ineffectiveness of this type of resistance has been...

Molecular and functional characterization of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase of plants
DownloadSpring 2011
sn-Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the acylation of sn-1 position of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate to produce lysophosphatidic acid and Coenzyme A. GPATs are involved in several lipid synthetic pathways and play important physiological roles in plant development. The present...

Spring 2022
Clubroot, caused by the soilborne pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae, is a threat to cruciferous crops worldwide and an important disease of canola (Brassica napus L.) in Canada. At present, pathotypes of P. brassicae are distinguished phenotypically based on their virulence patterns on host...

Fall 2020
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is an amphidiploid or allotetraploid (AACC, 2n = 4x = 38) crop plant and it is one of the most important oilseed crops in the world. The narrow genetic base of this crop, especially in its C genome, is not only a major impediment for its continued improvement but also...
