Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is an important oil crop worldwide. The aim of this study was to identify the variation in nitrogen (N) efficiency of new-type B. napus (genome A(r)A(r)C(c)C(c)) genotypes, and to characterize some critical physiological and molecular mechanisms in response to N limitation. METHODS: Two genotypes with contrasting N efficiency (D4-15 and D1-1) were identified from...
