A spatial assessment of Brassica napus gene flow potential to wild and weedy relatives in the Fynbos Biome

Gene flow between related plant species, and between transgenic and non-transgenic crop varieties, may be considered a form of biological invasion. Brassica napus (oilseed rape or canola) and its relatives are well known for intra- and inter-specific gene flow, hybridisation and weediness. Gene flow...
