Transcriptomic Analysis of Seed Coats in Yellow-Seeded Brassica napus Reveals Novel Genes That Influence Proanthocyanidin Biosynthesis

Yellow seeds are a favorable trait for Brassica crops breeding due to better quality than their black-seeded counterparts. Here, we compared the Brassica napus seed coat transcriptomes between yellow- and brown-seeded near-isogenic lines (Y-NIL and B-NIL) that were developed from the resynthesized y...
