Systematic trait dissection in oilseed rape provides a comprehensive view, further insight, and exact roadmap for yield determination.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Yield is the most important and complex trait that is influenced by numerous relevant traits with very complicated interrelations. While there are a large number of studies on the phenotypic relationship and genetic basis of yield traits, systematic studies with further dissection focusing on yield are limited. Therefore, there is still lack of a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the determination of yield.

Results

In this study, yield was systematically dissected at the phenotypic, genetic to molecular levels in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). The analysis of correlation, network, and principal component for 21 traits in BnaZN-RIL population showed that yield was determined by a complex trait network with key contributors. The analysis of the construc
