Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oilseed crops including rapeseed, peanut, soybean, sesame, flax, palm, sunflower and other plants provide fatty acids, protein, vitamins and other nutrient elements that are essential for human health. With theoretical and technological developments, considerable advancements have been made to the yield, quality and resistance breeding of these oilseed crops, and further improvements in many traits are progressing as expected.
This Special Issue aims to review the progress made in recent decades and showcase the latest research on the genetic bases, molecular technology and molecular mechanisms underlying the important traits of the yield, quality and resistance of oilseed crops.
