Overdominance at the Gene Expression Level Plays a Critical Role in the Hybrid Root Growth of <i>Brassica napus</i>

Overdominance at the Gene Expression Level Plays a Critical Role in the Hybrid Root Growth of <i>Brassica napus</i>

Despite heterosis contributing to genetic improvements in crops, root growth heterosis in rapeseed plants is poorly understood at the molecular level. The current study was performed to discover key differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to heterosis in two hybrids with contrasting root growt...
