Abstract:Brassica napus (canola) is a significant contributor to the world's oil production and is cultivated across continents, yet acidic soils with Al3+ and Mn2+ toxicities limit its production. The genetic determinants underlying acidic soil tolerance in canola are unknown and require to be uncovered for canola breeding and production. Here, through comprehensive phenotyping, whole genome resequencing, and genome-wide association analysis, we identified three QTLs for tolerance to Mn2+ toxicity on chromosomes A09, … Show more
