Physiological responses of spring rapeseed (Brassica napus) to red/far-red ratios and irradiance during pre- and post-flowering stages.

Abstract excerpt

Early shade signals promote the shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) which causes, among others, petiole and shoot elongation and upward leaf position. In spite of its relevance, these photomorphogenic responses have not been deeply studied in rapeseed (Brassica napus). In contrast to other crops like maize and wheat, rapeseed has a complex developmental phenotypic pattern as it evolves from an initial rosette to the...
