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...

Blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is one of the most damaging diseases of oilseed rape, Brassica napus. Interspecific hybridization between B. napus and B. carinata was done to transfer resistance to PG4 type blackleg pathotype from B. carinata into B. napus. In vitro ovule culture and...

Introgression of clubroot resistance from B. oleracea into B. napus and study the inheritance of the resistance
DownloadFall 2023
Clubroot disease, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, is one of the most devastating threats to Brassica napus canola production worldwide. Growing clubroot-resistant cultivars is considered the most efficient way of managing this disease. All available clubroot-resistant canola cultivars carry...

Screening of Brassica germplasm for resistance to Plasmodiophora brassicae pathotypes prevalent in Alberta, Canada
DownloadSpring 2010
Clubroot disease, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a threat to the Canadian canola industry, and breeding of resistant cultivars is urgent. The objective of this study was to identify Brassica germplasm possessing resistance to Canadian P. brassicae pathotypes based on greenhouse...
