Abstract:Clubroot [Plasmodiophora brassica] severity in canola (Brassica napus) can be suppressed by addition of boron (B), but excess B produces phytotoxicity. However, some lines of a closely related species, B. rapa, are relatively insensitive to high levels of B.

In 2015, 88 lines were planted i… Show more
