摘 要:Dear Editor, Brassica rapa is an important crop and a model plant for studying Brassica genome evolution and gene function. The silique of B. rapa derived from the gynoecium nor- mally consists of two carpels that are separated by a false septum, and thus has two Iocules (bilocular). Multilocular (more than two carpels) lines of B. rapa have been discov- ered in nature and are considered advantageous because the multilocular type could potentially increase the seed yield by producing more seeds per silique than the biloc- ular type. However, the molecular basis of the important seed vield-related trait is ooorlv understood.
