AbstractWe have compared the genetic diversity of 24 Chinese weak-winter, Swedish winter and spring Brassica napus accessions by inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs). Using cluster analysis (UPGMA) based on 125 polymorphism bands amplified with 20 primers, the 24 accessions were divided into three groups. Six Swedish winter lines and eight Chinese weak-winter lines were in group I and group II consisted of two Chinese weak-winter lines, Xiangyou15 and Bao81. The third group contained eight Swedish spring lines. Principal coordinates (PCO) analysis showed similar groupings to cluster analysis. Results from cluster analysis and PCO analysis showed very clearly that Chinese weak-winter, Swedish spring and winter accessions were distinguished from each other and Chinese weak-winter accessions in this study were genetically closer to Swedish winter accessions than to Swedish spring accessions. The Chinese weak-winter accessions had larger diversity than the Swedish spring or winter accessions. This study indicated that ISSR is a suitable and effective tool to evaluate genetic diversity among rapeseed germplasm.

Early maturity is a major objective of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) breeding programs in western Canada. Maturity of crops is influenced by time of initiation and flowering. The presence of a vernalization requirement affects plant development by delaying floral initiation until the cold requirement of the plant has been satisfied. Five spring oilseed rape cultivars were screened for their response to vernalization. Vernalization treatments consisted of exposure of germinated seeds to 0–42 d at 4 °C. Plants were assessed under a 20-h photoperiod. In general, there was a cumulative response to vernalization, with a decrease in days to each developmental stage as exposure to 4 °C was increased. Vernalization treatment of 6 d at 4 °C was sufficient to decrease both the days to first flower and the final leaf number. The characterization of vernalization response is of interest because variation in flowering time in response to year-to-year variations in the environment could result.

Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, is a significant threat to the canola (Brassica napus L.) industry in Canada. Clubroot resistance has been overcome in more than 200 fields since 2013, representing one of the biggest challenges to sustainable canola production. The genetic structure of 36 single-spore isolates derived from 12 field isolates of P. brassicae collected before and after the introduction of clubroot resistant (CR) canola cultivars (2005-2014) was evaluated by simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker analysis. Polymorphisms were detected in 32 loci with the identification of 93 distinct alleles. A low level of genetic diversity was found among the single-spore isolates. Haploid linkage disequilibrium and number of migrants suggested that recombination and migration were rare or almost absent in the tested P. brassicae population. A relatively clear relationship was found between the genetic structure and virulence phenotypes of the pathogen as defined on the differential hosts of Somé et al., Williams and the Canadian Clubroot Differential (CCD) set. Although genetic variability within each pathotype group, as classified on each differential system, was low, significant genetic differentiation was observed among the pathotypes. The highest correlation between genetic structure and virulence was found among matrices produced with genetic data and the hosts of the CCD set, with a threshold index of disease of 50% to distinguish susceptible from resistant reactions. Genetically homogeneous single-spore isolates provided a more complete and clearer picture of the population genetic structure of P. brassicae, and the results suggest some promise for the development of pathotype-specific primers.

The use of herbicides is an effective and economic way to control weeds, but their availability for rapeseed is limited due to the shortage of herbicide-resistant cultivars in China. The single-point mutation in the acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) gene can lead to AHAS-inhibiting herbicide resistance. In this study, the inheritance and molecular characterization of the tribenuron-methyl (TBM)-resistant rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) mutant, K5, are performed. Results indicated that TBM-resistance of K5 was controlled by one dominant allele at a single nuclear gene locus. The novel substitution of cytosine with thymine at position 544 in BnAHAS1 was identified in K5, leading to the alteration of proline with serine at position 182 in BnAHAS1. The TBM-resistance of K5 was approximately 100 times that of its wild-type ZS9, and K5 also showed cross-resistance to bensufuron-methyl and monosulfuron-ester sodium. The BnAHAS1544T transgenic Arabidopsis exhibited higher TBM-resistance than that of its wild-type, which confirmed that BnAHAS1544T was responsible for the herbicide resistance of K5. Simultaneously, an allele-specific marker was developed to quickly distinguish the heterozygous and homozygous mutated alleles BnAHAS1544T. In addition, a method for the fast screening of TBM-resistant plants at the cotyledon stage was developed. Our research identified and molecularly characterized one novel mutative AHAS allele in B. napus and laid a foundation for developing herbicide-resistant rapeseed cultivars.

Determinate inflorescences have a significant effect on the genetic improvement of rapeseed, so understanding the molecular function underlying the inflorescence trait may be beneficial to oilseed breeding. A previous study found candidate gene BnTFL1 (Terminal Flower 1) for control of the inflorescence trait on Brassica napus chromosome A10 (16,627–16,847 kb). However, little is known about the function of the BnTFL1 gene in B. napus. In this study, we firstly studied the formation of the shoot apical meristem and gene expression in indeterminate and determinate inflorescences; the results showed that the inflorescence architecture and BnA10.TFL1 expression showed significant differences in the shoot apex at the budding stage. Then, two alleles (named BnA10.TFL1 gene from indeterminate and BnA10.tfl1 gene from determinate) were cloned and sequence-analyzed; the results suggest that the open reading frame of the alleles comprises 537 bp, encodes 178 amino acids containing a conserved phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) domain, and shares high similarity with Arabidopsis thaliana TFL1. To analyze the function of BnA10.TFL1, the BnA10.TFL1 gene was introduced into the determinate A. thaliana tfl1 mutant and B. napus 571 line by complementation experiment. The determinate traits were restored to indeterminate, and expression of BnA10.TFL1 was increased in the indeterminate shoot apex. These results reveal that BnA10.tfl1 is a gene controlling the determinate inflorescence trait. Moreover, the BnA10.TFL1 protein was localized to the nucleus, cytoplasm, and plasma membrane. Collectively, the results of this study help us to understand the molecular mechanism of determinate inflorescences and will provide a reliable research basis for the application of determinate inflorescences in B. napus.
