Backcross Populations

Genetic analysis of F2, F3, and backcross populations supported the hypothesis that erucic acid content in seed oil of plants of Brassica napus L. is governed by two genes displaying no dominance and acting in an additive manner. Environment appeared to influence erucic acid content, especially in genotypes capable of producing a large amount of this acid. Methods for the breeding of plants of Brassica campestris L. with zero erucic acid are outlined and it is suggested that similar methods could be used to breed for or against other fatty acids.

Canola Quality

Tribute summer rape (Brassica napus L.), registered in 1985, is a triazine-tolerant, canola-quality cultivar. It is early maturing and produces seed with low seed chlorophyll content. Tribute has yield and seed oil content similar to other triazine-tolerant cultivars such as OAC Triton. Tribute is better adapted than OAC Triton to the B. napus growing areas of western Canada because of its earlier maturity. However, it should not be planted on fields which have a history of heavy blackleg infestations. Key words: Rape (summer), triazine-tolerant, cultivar description

Doubled Haploid Breeding

Sixty families from pedigree selection and 60 lines from doubled haploid development per cross, for three different Brassica napus L. high erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR) crosses, were created and then compared for agronomic and seed quality performance in four environments in Manitoba in 2000 and 2001. Differences in mean performance for many traits were observed within crosses; however, these differences were not consistent among crosses. Similarly, there were differences observed in ranges for many traits within crosses but with few clear trends among crosses. Similar numbers of superior pedigree selection families and doubled haploid lines within and among crosses for individual traits and for combinations of all traits were found in this study. Financial and temporal resource requirements for these two breeding methods were found to be similar. It is concluded that both pedigree selection and doubled haploid breeding methods have their particular strengths and weaknesses but that neither is clearly superior for the development of B. napus HEAR cultivars.

Developmental Switches

Transcription factors (TFs) and their complex interplay are essential for directing specific genetic programs, such as responses to environmental stresses, tissue development, or cell differentiation by regulating gene expression. Knowledge regarding TF–TF cooperations could be promising in gaining insight into the developmental switches between the cultivars of Brassica napus L., namely Zhongshuang11 (ZS11), a double-low accession with high-oil- content, and Zhongyou821 (ZY821), a double-high accession with low-oil-content. In this regard, we analysed a time series RNA-seq data set of seed tissue from both of the cultivars by mainly focusing on the monotonically expressed genes (MEGs). The consideration of the MEGs enables the capturing of multi-stage progression processes that are orchestrated by the cooperative TFs and, thus, facilitates the understanding of the molecular mechanisms determining seed oil content. Our findings show that TF families, such as NAC, MYB, DOF, GATA, and HD-ZIP are highly involved in the seed developmental process. Particularly, their preferential partner choices as well as changes in their gene expression profiles seem to be strongly associated with the differentiation of the oil content between the two cultivars. These findings are essential in enhancing our understanding of the genetic programs in both cultivars and developing novel hypotheses for further experimental studies.
