Abstract:Background
Brassica napus (rapeseed) is an important oilseed crop and its leaves and stems can also be used as animal feed. Lignocellulose content is closely related to the nutritional quality and palatability of animal feed.

Results
In this study, we used 494 B. napus accessions to perform genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of ADF and … Show more
