The effect of the auxin physiological analogues analogues 1-[2-chloroethoxycarbonylmethyl]-4-naphthalenesulfonic acid calcium salt (TA-12) and 1-[2-dimethylaminoethoxicarbonylmethyl]naphthalene chlormethylate (TA-14) TA-14 on different winter rapeseed cultivars were studied with regard to their

Photosynthesis competent autotrophy is established during the postgerminative stage of plant growth. Among the multiple factors, light plays a decisive role in the switch from heterotrophic to autotrophic growth. Under dark conditions, the rapeseed hypocotyl extends quickly with an apical hook, and

The use of herbicides is an effective and economic way to control weeds, but their availability for rapeseed is limited due to the shortage of herbicide-resistant cultivars in China. The single-point mutation in the acetohydroxyacidsynthase (AHAS) gene can lead to

Phytoremediation offers owners and managers of metal-contaminated sites an innovative and cost-effective option to address recalcitrant environmental contamination. The use of plants to restore or stabilize contaminated sites, known as phytoremediation, takes advantage of the natural abilities of

A cDNA subtraction and differential hybridization strategy was used to isolate cDNAs expressed early during male gametophyte development in the important crop species Brassica napus. Three cDNAs, corresponding to genes highly and specifically expressed at the tetrad and microspore stages, are

Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) can bind to ice crystals and restrain the formation of larger crystals, a strategy vital to the survival of plants in freezing environments. The BrAFP1 from winter rapeseed cultivars 'Longyou 7' with high cold tolerance was cloned and overexpressed in Arabidopsis. BrAFP1

Lead (Pbp>+2p>) is a heavy metal and one of the main environmental pollutant, toxic to plants, animals and humans. Present study was conducted to evaluate ten plant growth promoting bacteria strains (B1-10) for biofilm production and their effect on growth indices, physiology, yield,

BACKGROUND Non-essential amino acids are a good source of nitrogen and also very important contributors to the metabolic process. Analysis of quantitative trait locus (QTL) simultaneously located on the amphidiploid embryo and maternal plant nuclear genomes for non-essential amino acid contents in

The phenolic and proline content were determined in honey samples of different floral origins (rapeseed, sunflower, buckwheat and Codonopsis) from five different regions of China. The phenolic and proline profile of these samples were used to construct a statistical model to distinguish honeys from

CONCLUSIONS Identification and molecular analysis of four tribenuron-methyl resistant mutants in Brassica napus , which would be very useful in hybrid production using a Chemically induced male sterility system. Chemically induced male sterility (CIMS) systems dependent on chemical hybridization

Abiotic stress greatly inhibits crop growth and reduces yields. However, little is known about the transcriptomic changes that occur in the industrial oilseed crop, rapeseed (Brassica napus), in response to abiotic stress. In this study, we examined the physiological and transcriptional

Winter rapeseed is not only an important oilseed crop, but also a winter cover crop in Northern China, where its production was severely limited by freezing stress. As an overwinter crop, the production is severely limited by freezing stress. Therefore, understanding the physiological and molecular

Two separate field experiments were conducted in 2018 and 2019 as split-plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications to evaluate physiological responses of rapeseed to fertilization treatments (control, chemical fertilizer, inoculation of seeds with PGPR, vermicompost and

Higher plant responses to abiotic stresses are associated with physiological and biochemical changes triggering a number of metabolic adjustments. We focused on L-lysine catabolism, and have previously demonstrated that degradation of this amino acid is osmo-regulated at the level of

5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-HMF) is an important substance that affect quality of honey and shows toxicity for humans and honey bees. The pathway of 5-HMF formation in honey is still unknown. In this study, we tested the effect of thermal treatment (at 90 °C for 4 h) on the formulation of 5-HMF
