Evaluation of natural products on agronomic features of canola: Effect of treatments on crop germination, growth, fatty acid profile and yield of canola in Eastern Canada

Categories: Canola; Agronomy; Oil Quality ECODA project number: B.2.2 and B.2.3 Principal investigator: Balakrishnan Prithiviraj Executive summary Marine bio-products have been known to induce plant responses such as altered fatty acid biosynthesis, induce plant defense to pathogens, improve crop growth under

Test the ability of signaling compounds to help canola plants overcome temperature stresses in controlled environment and field experiments

ECODA project number: B.2.1 Principal investigator: Donald L. Smith Executive Summary The objective of this sub-activity was to understand the potential for microbe-to-plant signaling compounds such as lipochitooligosaccharides (LCOc) and thuricin 17 to help canola plants deal with stressful growing
