Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of the major global sources edible vegetable oil and also used as a feed pioneer crop for sightseeing industrial purposes. Improvements in genome sequencing molecular marker technology have fueled boom functional genomic studies agronomic characters such yield, quality, flowering time, stress resistance. Moreover, introgression pyramiding key genes greatly accelerated genetic improvement important traits. Here we summarize recent progress rapeseed genomics genetics, discuss effective breeding strategies by exploring these findings rapeseed. These insights will extend our understanding mechanisms regulatory networks underlying traits facilitate process, ultimately contributing to more sustainable agriculture throughout world.

Envirotyping within a multi-environment trial allowed identifying genetic determinants of winter oilseed rape yield stability

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 137(7)

Published: June 19, 2024

Abstract Key message A comprehensive environmental characterization allowed identifying stable and interactive QTL for seed yield: QA09 QC09a were detected across environments; whereas QA07a was specifically on the most stressed environments. main challenge rapeseed consists in maintaining yield while adapting to climate changes contributing environmental-friendly cropping systems. Breeding cultivar adaptation is one of keys meet this challenge. Therefore, we propose identify genetic determinant stability winter oilseed rape using GWAS coupled with a multi-environmental trial interpret them light characteristics. Due 79 indicators, four contrasting envirotypes defined used QTL. total QTLs detected, among which, QC09a, (detected at scale or different environments); one, QA07a, into envirotype. The analysis molecular diversity showed lack within modern lines compared older cultivars bred before selection low glucosinolate content. results discussed comparison other studies methods as well context breeding programs.

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) response to salinity and seed priming with NaCl

Annals of Applied Biology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 3, 2025

Abstract Laboratory and pot trials were conducted to study germination performance of rapeseed ( Brassica napus L., genotype Excalibur) under NaCl salinity after seed priming with 20 mM for 24 h. In the laboratory trial, levels 80, 160, 240 reduced percentage by 14, 56, 80 points, respectively compared non‐saline control. lowered detrimental effect salt stress on promoting from 81% 85% mM, 39% 68% 160 15% 56% (maximum alleviation). Furthermore, increased tolerance index vigour seedlings as control seeds. Relative water content leaves was decreased increasing salinity, showing limited availability a loss turgor in leaves. decrease relative salinity. Concerning level dry weight 80.9% non‐primed seeds 55.8% primed improved mean productivity 1.26 times harmonic 1.98 Salinity rapeseed, whereas early growth saline environment.

A Review of Biochar from Biomass and Its Interaction with Microbes: Enhancing Soil Quality and Crop Yield in Brassica Cultivation

Life, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(2), P. 284 - 284

Published: Feb. 12, 2025

Biochar, produced from biomass, has become recognized as a sustainable soil amendment that the potential to improve quality and agricultural production. This review focuses on production processes properties of biochar derived different types including synergistic interactions between microorganisms, emphasizing their influence overall crop production, particularly in cultivation Brassica crops. It additionally addresses benefits limitations microbial application. Biomass is renewable abundant resource can be converted through pyrolysis into biochar, which high porosity, surface functionalities, capacity retain nutrients. These characteristics provide optimal conditions for beneficial communities increase nutrient cycling, reduce pathogens, structure. The information indicates use crops result improved plant growth, yield, uptake, stress mitigation. includes about such pH, elemental composition, ash content, affected by biomass used well like temperature. Understanding these variables essential optimizing use. Moreover, microbes emphasizes importance with constraints. Therefore, agriculture methods possibly achieved integrating management measurements, resulting higher productivity adaptability or other systems. aims comprehensive understanding biochar’s role supporting farming its address contemporary challenges.

Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of Basic Pentacysteine Transcription Factors in Brassica napus

Plants, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(7), P. 1136 - 1136

Published: April 6, 2025

BARLEY B-RECOMBINANT/BASIC PENTACYSTEINE (BBR/BPC), a plant-specific transcription factor family, is group of GAGA_motif binding factors controlling multiple developmental processes growth and response to abiotic stresses. BPCs recruit histone remodeling for transcriptional repression downstream targets. However, the information about BnaBPCs from Brassica napus remains unclear. Here, we identified 25 BnaBPC genes that were mainly localized in nucleus, randomly on 16 chromosomes, grouped into three subfamilies based phylogenetic analysis. Twenty-five exhibit syntenic relationships with AtBPC genes, polypeptides encoded by within same subfamily share similar conserved motifs protein domains. The expansion underwent whole-genome duplication events purifying selection genomes, all had GAGA Additionally, promoter each gene consisted various cis-elements associated stresses, phytohormones, development. Notably, seed-specific regulatory element was found only BnaC04.BPC4 promoter. Further expression pattern analysis showed members are widely expressed stems, buds, developing seeds siliques. These findings provide insights enrich our understanding their functional characterization B. napus.
