Identification of candidate genes associated with regreening stage in rapeseed (Brassica Rapa L.) by combined application of BSA-Seq and RNA-Seq

Our findings provide the first comprehensive genetic map of the regreening process in rapeseed, revealing a dynamic regulatory network centered on JA signaling and stress response pathways. The identified candidate genes and associated molecular markers establish a valuable resource and a solid theoretical foundation for future functional studies. More importantly, we have identified direct targets for marker-assisted selection (MAS). This provides a foundation for breeding novel rapeseed cultivars with optimized regreening timing and enhanced yield potential.
