“…Ferreira et al (1995) reported that spring‐type's flowering was dominant to winter type in B. napus . The dominant nature of spring type over winter type for flowering in other Brassica species such as B. oleracea have also been reported by Dickson (1968), Pelofske and Baggett (1979), Baggett and Kean (1989), and Kennard et al (1994).…”

These countries produce about 84% of total world rapeseed production (FAOSTAT, 2010). Canola produces a healthy vegetable oil with low levels of saturated fats that makes it an ideal cooking oil and for the use in processed foods. It contains about a 2:1 ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fats, the desired ratio for human health. In October 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized canola oil as a healthy vegetable oil because its lower saturated fats and its high level of polyunsaturated fats help reduce the risk of human cardiovascular disease (USFDA, 2006). Due to these healthy attributes the consumption of canola oil by the American consumers has led to expanded production opportunities for U.S. canola producers. Canola oil is also one of the best sources for biodiesel production. Canola is important in North Dakota as a rotational crop that follows wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and the cultivation area has expanded to 526,000 ha in 2012. On the basis of growing season, rapeseed or canola is classified as spring or winter type (Ferreira et al., 1995). The winter type is planted in the fall, undergoes low temperature (vernalization) during the winter to induce flowering the following spring, and is harvested in the summer. The spring type is planted in the spring, flowers without vernalization in the summer, and is harvested at the end of summer. Several researchers have studied the genetic

“…Cultivars with lower LPH show developmental patterns in which the outer leaves widen at a lower leaf position as a result of more rapid shortening of petiole length with increasing leaf position (Tanaka andNiikura 2003, Tanaka et al 2008).

We investigated the inheritance of head formation in Brassica oleracea by using two crosses, cabbage · ornamental cabbage and cabbage · kale. The degree of head formation (DHF) was classified into nine grades ranging from non-heading to full heading. DHF in the two F 2 populations showed a continuous distribution. The variance of F 3 offspring selected for full heading or non-heading was large. The DHF distributions in the F 3 offspring selected for moderate heading or randomly selected F 3 populations were similar to those of the respective F 2 populations, but had smaller average values and variance. However, the realized heritability in F 3 offspring was similar in full-heading and non-heading selections. Our findings suggest that head formation is a quantitative trait controlled additively with low dominance effects. In comparisons of leaf developmental patterns among the parents, only cabbage showed a change in leaf shape becoming wider because of the shorter petiole length with increasing leaf position. These findings suggest that cabbage acquired the developmental changes in leaves required to form a head during the process of domestication.

“…Similar studies on B. oleracea indicated a polygenic inheritance with the annual growth habit being dominant (Pelofske and Baggett 1979;Baggett and Kean 1989;Kennard et al 1994). Recently, linkage maps have shown that the vernalization requirement in B. napus is controlled by as many as three quantitative trait loci (QTLs; Ferreira et al 1995).…”

Characterization of freezing tolerance and vernalization in Vern-, a spring-type Brassica napus line derived from a winter cross

Exposure of winter brassicas to periods of low temperature decreases the transition required from vegetative to reproductive growth. This low-temperature exposure also results in the acquisition of freezing tolerance. To investigate the relationship between vernalization and freezing tolerance, homozygous microspore-derived (DH) lines were developed from reciprocal crosses between two winter cultivars of Brassica napus L., cv. Cascade and cv. Rebel. A resulting line, termed Vern-, expressed a high degree of freezing tolerance and was selected for study. Analysis of growth and development revealed that Vern- is a true spring type, having completely lost the vernalization requirement. Using markers previously mapped in B. rapa, it was concluded that Vern- inherited freezing-tolerance alleles from Cascade. With regard to vernalization and flowering time, Rebel, although traditionally classified as a winter type, carries spring alleles at the major and some of the minor loci. Vern- inherited these alleles from Rebel, in addition to one spring allele from Cascade. Thus, spring alleles from both parents were critical in establishing the spring phenotype observed in Vern-.
