Abstract
The invention relates to a method of producing a double low restorer line of Brassica napus for Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (cms) presenting a radish introgression carrying the Rfo restorer gene deleted of the radish Pgi-2 allele and recombined with the Pgi-2 gene from Brassica oleracea, and having a good agronomic value characterized by female fertility, a good transmission rate of Rfo and a high vegetative vigour. The invention relates also to a method of forming Brassica napus hybrid seeds and progeny thereof and to the use of markers for selection.
