NAPUS 2000 Rapeseed (Brassica napus) breeding for improved human nutrition

Following a competition announcement of the Federal Ministry of Research and Education (BMBF) a project dealing with the improvement of the nutritional value of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) for food applications and human nutrition was worked out and started in autumn 1999. A number of partners (Fi...

description Following a competition announcement of the Federal Ministry of Research and Education (BMBF) a project dealing with the improvement of the nutritional value of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) for food applications and human nutrition was worked out and started in autumn 1999. A number of partners (Figure 2) are carrying out a complex project reaching from the discovery, characterisation, isolation and transfer of genes of interest up to breeding of well performing varieties combined with important agronomic traits. Economic studies and processing trials as well as nutritional investigations of the new qualities are undertaken. B. napus seed quality aspects with respect to seed coat colour, oil composition, lecithin and protein fractions and antioxidants like tocopherols and resveratrol will be improved.
