The inheritance of male fertility restoration for the pol cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) system in summer rape (Brassica napus L.) was determined. Male fertility:sterility segregation ratios observed in F2 and backcross generations derived from crosses and backcrosses between two pol CMS A lines and the male fertility restorer gene(s) sources Italy and UM2353 were used in this study. Italy and UM2353 were found to possess a single Mendelian dominant gene with high male fertility restoration capabilities for the pol CMS system. Tests for allelism of the restorer genes were also conducted using male fertility:sterility segregation ratios observed in F3 families derived from crosses between F1 plants containing genes for male fertility restoration from the Italy and UM2353 restorer gene sources. The male fertility restorer gene from Italy (designated Rfp1) was found to be different (i.e., nonallelic) from the restorer gene possessed by UM2353 (designated Rfp2).Key words: Brassica napus L., oilseed rape, male fertility restoration, pol cytoplasmic male sterility.
