Create free accountAAFC requires the services of a Contractor to generate 2500 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) -derived to the F6 generation, from 2500 original F2 plants.
Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada's (AAFC) Saskatoon Research Centre is working on a project entitled “Development of a germplasm resource to dissect complex traits in B. napus” which is funded by the Saskatchewan Agricultural Development Fund and canola producers. The overall objective of this project is to develop a foundational resource for canola crop improvement: a nested association mapping (NAM) population for spring type B. napus that will target adaptation to Prairie conditions, which requires the generation of 50 recombinant inbred (RI) populations composed of 50 lines each - totaling 2500 RI lines.
The development of RILs requires extensive greenhouse space. In addition, to cycle through four (4) generations within the time span of the project requires experience in forcing early flowering while maintaining the health of the plant such that it will produce seed. There are no plans for the generation of additional RILs.
