Oilseed rape has the potential to expand as an industrial crop. However, as oilseed rape matures, seed loss occurs by dehiscence of the seed from the pods prior to harvest and also as a result of crop disturbance by machinery during harvest. Seed loss of 600 kg ha\, 25% of the recorded yield, is not

Pods of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) stronger than those in current cultivars are needed to reduce the considerable loss of seed caused when the fragile, mature pods open prior to or during harvest. But threshing of pods by a combine harvester must be complete and must cause minimum damage to the s

Seed pods of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) are fragile at harvest maturity and seed loss can be a signi"cant fraction of potential yield if bad weather occurs when the crop is most vulnerable. Even in good weather, loss of up to 25% has been reported when harvest operations are late. Plant breeders
