BACKGROUND
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of genotype × environment interaction on the levels of α-, β-, γ- and δ-tocopherol (α-T, β-T, γ-T and δ-T, respectively) and plastochromanol-8 (PC-8) in seeds of 17 doubled haploids (DHs) obtained from the F1 hybrid derived from crossing black (DH H2 -26) × yellow (DH Z-114) seeds of winter oilseed rape.
RESULTS
The content of tocopherols in the tested DH lines ranged from 415.6 to 540.1 mg kg-1 seeds, while PC-8 content ranged from 56.3 to 89.0 mg kg-1 seeds. The α-T/γ-T ratio reached a level of 0.78-1.29. Studies have shown that heritability for α-T, β-T, γ-T, total-T and PC-8 is mainly due to genotypic variation. For the δ-T homologue the level was dependent on environmental effect.
CONCLUSIONS
The obtained DH lines population of oilseed rape is characterized by high heritability coefficients for α-T, β-T, γ-T, total-T and PC-8 levels, which indicates a greater influence of genotype than the environment on the content of these compounds. Among all studied doubled haploids, seven DHs were selected which were characterized by stable contents of α-T, β-T, γ-T, δ-T and total-T with the simultaneous stable content of PC-8. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
