[The discovery and genetic analysis of dwarf mutation 99CDAM in Brassica napus L].

Abstract excerpt

The plant height of rapeseed varieties has increased more than 20 cm due to wide application of heterosis, which leads to high risk of lodging at late stages of rapeseed development. Using dwarf genes to decrease plant height is an effective approach to resolve the lodging problem. A dwarf mutation 99CDAM with plant height of about 85 cm was discovered from a Brassica napus line which had selfed for many years....
