Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: One hundred and sixty-seven B. juncea varieties were genotyped on the 90K Brassica assay (42,914 SNPs), which led to the identification of sixteen candidate genes for Rlm6. Brassica species are at high risk of severe crop loss due to pathogens, especially Leptosphaeria maculans (the causal agent of blackleg). Brassica juncea (L.) Czern is an important germplasm resource for canola improvement, due to...
