Abstract excerpt
Utilizing hybrid vigor is a pivotal strategy for breeding high-yield and high-quality rapeseed (Brassica napus) cultivars. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understand. In this study, we systematically evaluated heterosis using multiple interspecific and intraspecific hybrid crosses. Our findings revealed that yield-related traits exhibited stronger heterosis in the winter × spring...
