Abstract

'Polima' cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) was transferred from 'Polima' Brassica napus 'ISN 706'to five different cultivars of Brassica campestris ('Pusa kalyani', 'Pant toria', 'Candle', 'Tobin' and 'ATC 94211') by repeated backcrossing. It was observed that, while 'Polima' CMS manifested complete and stable male sterility in the nuclear backgrounds of 'Pusa kalyani', 'Pant toria', and 'Tobin', the cultivars 'Candle' and 'ATC 94211'possessed the restorer gene for this CMS in the heterozygous condition. An analysis of F1 and F2 generations of 'Polima''Pusa kalyani'×'Candle' and 'Polima''Pusa kalyani'×'ATC 94211' revealed that restoration is controlled by a single dominant gene. Identification of stable maintainers and restorers of 'Polima' CMS could facilitate the development of hybrid varieties in B. campestris.
