Statistical analysis<br />

Mean values are given with their 95 % confi<strong>de</strong>nce limits. Chi-square analysis was employed<br />

to test herbici<strong>de</strong>-resistant rate of BC1 and F2 with the expected Men<strong>de</strong>lian segregation ratios.<br />

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s honestly significant difference (HSD) test were<br />

carried out t o c ompare pl ant w eight, s eed w eight, s eed num ber, pe r-seed weight an d<br />

germination rate o f th e plants in th e field trial. Bartlett's t est was u sed for testing v ariance<br />

homogeneity and data were log-transformed to ensure a normal distribution. We followed a<br />

herbici<strong>de</strong>-resistance had any effect, BC1N was separated into two phenotypes: resistant plants<br />

(BC1NR) and susceptible plants (BC1NS). F2 was separated into herbici<strong>de</strong>-resistant (F2R) and<br />

-susceptible F2 plants (F2S). Contrasts were used to analyze the effect of herbici<strong>de</strong>-resistance<br />

on growth and reproductive performances. Linear regression functions between seed number<br />

and biomass were constructed for the three plant types: B. napus, BC 1N and F 2. Chi-square<br />

Results<br />

Hybrids and backcrosses production<br />

The h ybrids pr oduced 3 4 ± 3 % vi able pol lens. T hey pr oduced f ewer s eeds pe r pol linated<br />

flower when backcrossed with B. juncea pollen than when backcrossed with B. napus pollen<br />

(5.9 a nd 12.4 % , r espectively). S elf-pollinated h ybrids pr oduced s eeds ( Table 2.4). T he<br />

backcross with B. napus pollen produced heavier seeds, and they germinated better than the<br />

seeds produced with B. juncea pollen (Chi 2 = 7.2, significant at p < 0.01).<br />
