Abstract excerpt
The swollen root is an important agronomic trait and is a determinant of yield for turnips, which are cultivated as both vegetables and fodder. However, the genetic mechanism of swollen root formation is poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed the F2 and BC1P2 populations derived from a cross between "10601" (European turnip with swollen root, Brassica rapa ssp. rapifera, AA, 2n = 2× = 20) and "10603"...
