Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is an oil-containing crop of great economic value but with considerable nitrogen requirement. Breeding root systems that efficiently absorb nitrogen from the soil could be a driver to ensure genetic gains for more sustainable rapeseed production.

Background: Nitrogen use efficiency is an important breeding trait that can be modified to improve the sustainability of many crop species used in agriculture. Rapeseed is a major oil crop with low nitrogen use efficiency, making its production highly dependent on nitrogen input. This complex trait is suspected to be sensitive to genotype × environment interactions, especially genotype × nitrogen interactions.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Anne-Sophie Bouchet"

  • - Anne-Sophie Bouchet's research primarily focuses on the genetic factors that influence root morphology and nitrogen use efficiency in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), aiming to enhance sustainable crop production in the face of high nitrogen demands.
  • - The article "Genetic control of root morphology in response to nitrogen across rapeseed diversity," published in May 2024, highlights the significance of breeding root systems designed for better nitrogen absorption as a strategy for sustainable rapeseed farming.
  • - Bouchet’s earlier work, "Genetic basis of nitrogen use efficiency and yield stability across environments in winter rapeseed," published in September 2016, examines the complexity of nitrogen use efficiency as a breeding trait while addressing its sensitivity to genotype-environment interactions, particularly under varying nitrogen conditions.
