The effects of seed size on hybrids formed between oilseed rape (Brassica napus) and wild brown mustard (B. juncea).
Seed size has significant implications in ecology, because of its effects on plant fitness. The hybrid seeds that result from crosses between crops and their wild relatives are often small, and the consequences of this have been poorly investigated. Here we report on plant performance of hybrid and...
