| Description |
Petal size determines the value of ornamental plants, and thus their economic worth. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling petal size remain unclear. To identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and associated candidate genes regulating petal size in rapeseed (Brassica napus), we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using data from 588 accessions over three consecutive years. A combination of GWAS and transcriptomic sequencing based on two accessions with extreme differences in petal size identified 17 differentially expressed genes that may control petal size variation in B. napus. Our results not only provide insights into the genetic mechanisms regulating petal size in B. napus, but also lay the foundation for a better understanding of petal development in plants. |
