Genetic variation of BnaA3.NIP5;1 expressing in the lateral root cap contributes to boron deficiency tolerance in Brassica napus.

Boron (B) is essential for vascular plants. Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is the second leading crop source for vegetable oil worldwide, but its production is critically dependent on B supplies. BnaA3.NIP5;1 was identified as a B-efficient candidate gene in B. napus in our previous QTL fine mapping. How...
