Seven groups of inbred lines derived from the summer oilseed rape (Brassica napus ssp. oleifera) cultivars 'Westar', 'Regent', 'Lergo', 'Marnoo', 'Ariel', 'Karat', and 'R83-11' were evaluated at three sites over 2 years, for agronomic characters and seed oil and protein concentrations. Estimates of additive genetic variance and heritability were calculated. Comparison of the mean of inbred lines with the mean of their respective source cultivars indicated little, if any, inbreeding depression in all cultivars except 'Ariel'. It was concluded that dominance is not a major factor in the genetic determination of the characters studied. For every trait in every cultivar, individual inbred lines were identified that exceeded or equaled their respective source cultivar means, indicating that neither heterozygosity per se nor genetic heterogeneity is required to maintain maximum performance in summer oilseed rape. Therefore, the oilseed rape cultivars used in this study were considered to be genetically heterogeneous populations, consisting of some number of generally homozygous lines. Significant additive genetic variance was detected for most traits in most cultivars, indicating that superior inbred lines could be extracted from within cultivars.Key words: inbreeding depression, heritability, Brassica napus L.

Cartier BX is the fourth in the Navigator® series of summer oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) canola cultivars, which are resistant to Compas® herbicide, a mix of herbicides including the broadleaf herbicide bromoxynil. It is 32 kg ha–1 (1.3%) higher yielding than the mean of the check cultivars Defender, AC Excel and Legacy, is 5 g kg–1 lower in oil concentration and is 11 g kg–1 higher in protein concentration than the means of the check cultivars, respectively. Cartier BX is moderately resistant to blackleg disease. Cartier BX is adapted to the long- and mid-season B. napus canola-growing areas of western Canada.

Endophytic bacteria hold tremendous potential for use as biocontrol agents. Our study aimed to investigate the biocontrol activity of Pseudomonas fluorescens BRZ63, a new endophyte of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) against Rhizoctonia solani W70, Colletotrichum dematium K, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum K2291, and Fusarium avenaceum. In addition, features crucial for biocontrol, plant growth promotion, and colonization were assessed and linked with the genome sequences. The in vitro tests showed that BRZ63 significantly inhibited the mycelium growth of all tested pathogens and stimulated germination and growth of oilseed rape seedlings treated with fungal pathogens. The BRZ63 strain can benefit plants by producing biosurfactants, siderophores, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase, and ammonia as well as phosphate solubilization. The abilities of exopolysaccharide production, autoaggregation, and biofilm formation additionally underline its potential to plant colonization and hence biocontrol. The effective colonization properties of the BRZ63 strain were confirmed by microscopy observations of EGFP-expressing cells colonizing the root surface and epidermal cells of Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0. Genome mining identified many genes related to the biocontrol process, such as transporters, siderophores, and other secondary metabolites. All analyses revealed that the BRZ63 strain is an excellent endophytic candidate for biocontrol of various plant pathogens and plant growth promotion.
