Estimation of additive and epistatic gene effects for phenotypic and biochemical traits in double hyploid lines of winter rape seed ,(Brassica napus L.)

In this paper 60 doubled haploid lines of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) were studied. Genetic parameters as additive and epistatic effects were estimated for 24 traits. The results indicate the importance of both these effects for number of branches per plant, number of siliques per plant, linoleic acid, total of glucosinolates, total of alkenyl glucosinolates, gluconapin, glucobrassicanapin, progoitryn, napoleiferin and indolyl in...
