Introduction: Heavy metal soil pollution is a global issue that can be efficiently tackled through the process of phytoremediation. The use of rapeseed in the phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated agricultural land shows great potential. Nevertheless, its ability to tolerate heavy metal stress at the molecular level remains unclear.

Article Synopsis
  • Canola is a major vegetable oil source in China, but high levels of heavy metals like cadmium, lead, and arsenic negatively impact its yield, prompting research on heavy metal tolerance.
  • This study experimented with canola lines differing in oil content and heavy metal tolerance, revealing significant differences in enzyme activities (SOD and POD) between the lines when exposed to high metal concentrations.
  • Key differential genes, specifically SAUR36, were identified as markers for heavy metal stress tolerance, indicating their potential use in breeding canola varieties with better resilience to heavy metals.
