Cytoplasmic male sterility identified in Raphanus sativus (Rlrr) by Ogura (1968) and transferred by Bannerot (1974) to Brassica napus (Rlaacc) has subsequently been transferred to B. campestris (Rlaa) by Heyn (1978) via substitution backcrosses to B. campestris. Selection for high female fertility, absence of chlorosis, nectary function and multiple disease resistance in recurrent backcross progenies to various Chinese cabbage types had produced a series of cytoplasmic male sterile substitution lines (Rlaa.p) that should be useful to Chinese cabbage breeders.
