QTL mapping reveals genomic regions for yield based on an incremental tolerance index to drought stress and related agronomic traits in canola

Drought stress, especially at the reproductive stage, is a major limiting factor that compromises the productivity and profitability of canola in many regions of the world. Improved genetics for drought tolerance would enable the identification and development of resilient cultivars, resulting in increased canola production. The main objective of the present study was to dissect the genetic basis of seed yield of canola under water-limited...
