The paper traces the inheritance of a genomic haplotype linked to oil quality in canola over a century of breeding, revealing its pre-existing origin and long-term persistence through hitchhiking.

The paper analyzes structural variation in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum genomes to show distinct contributions of recombination and transposons to SV diversity and phenotypic variability.

The paper identifies sRNAs in Brassica napus responsive to S. sclerotiorum infection using degradome and small RNA sequencing, revealing novel miRNAs and targets involved in plant immunity.
