Abstract excerpt
We investigated phenotypic variations for pod shattering, pod length and number of seeds per pod in large germplasm collections of Brassica juncea (2n = 36; AABB) and its progenitor species, B. rapa (2n = 20; AA) and B. nigra (2n = 16; BB). Pod shatter resistance was measured as energy required for rupturing a mature dry pod, with a specially fabricated pendulum machine. Rupture energy (RE) ranged from 3.3 to...
