Abstract

Evolve is the world’s first ogu INRA (Institut national de la recherche agronomique) CMS (cytoplasmic male sterility) hybrid summer rape (Brassica napus L.) Roundup Ready^® high erucic acid, low glucosinolate cultivar. On average, Evolve yielded 12.4% more seed, 6 g kg⁻¹ more seed oil, and 5 g kg⁻¹ less meal protein than Red River 1861, an open-pollinated Roundup Ready^® high erucic acid, low glucosinolate summer rape. Evolve has an erucic acid content of 52.3% in isolated field trials of high erucic acid rapeseed genotypes and is adapted to the southern B. napus growing regions of western Canada.
