Rapeseed Plant Height

Brassica napus L.

Rapeseed height is measured from the soil surface to the top of the inflorescence and is a key trait determining lodging resistance and harvestability.

In the reference 244 varieties crop Rapeseed, where this is mentioned in the description.

For rapeseed, dwarf forms are considered to be 90–100 cm or shorter, while tall plants can reach 130–180 cm. Breeding is aimed at developing dwarf hybrids, as they combine early maturity with increased lodging resistance, which is critical for reducing yield losses.

Plant height is positively correlated with productivity components, including branching height, number of pods, and root collar diameter. In breeding programs, it is important to maintain a balance between limiting stem height for ease of harvesting and preserving morphological traits that ensure high yield potential.
