Brassica napus is a globally significant oilseed crop that plays a significant role in the agricultural economy. However, its productivity is frequently challenged by abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, temperature extremes, etc. Effective management of these stresses is essential to ensure sustainable crop yields in the face of climate variability. This chapter explores contemporary strategies for mitigating abiotic stress in B. napus, focusing on both conventional and modern breeding approaches and molecular interventions. It highlights the critical need to explore the physiological and biochemical reactions of Brassica napus under various stress conditions. Additionally, it underscores recent progress in genetic engineering and CRISPR technology aimed at creating stress-resistant varieties. Furthermore, the integration of stress-tolerant germplasm and precision agriculture techniques is discussed to enhance adaptability and stability in diverse environments. By synthesizing recent research and field trials, this chapter provides a comprehensive guide to improving B. napus resilience to abiotic stress, with practical applications for breeders, farmers, and policymakers.

摘要

Brassica napus is a globally significant oilseed crop that plays a significant role in the agricultural economy. However, its productivity is frequently challenged by abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, temperature extremes, etc. Effective management of these stresses is essential to ensure sustainable crop yields in the face of climate variability. This chapter explores contemporary strategies for mitigating abiotic stress in B. napus, focusing on both conventional and modern breeding approaches and molecular interventions. It highlights the critical need to explore the physiological and biochemical reactions of Brassica napus under various stress conditions. Additionally, it underscores recent progress in genetic engineering and CRISPR technology aimed at creating stress-resistant varieties. Furthermore, the integration of stress-tolerant germplasm and precision agriculture techniques is discussed to enhance adaptability and stability in diverse environments. By synthesizing recent research and field trials, this chapter provides a comprehensive guide to improving B. napus resilience to abiotic stress, with practical applications for breeders, farmers, and policymakers.
