Winter canola generally produces greater yields than spring canola. However, its range is limited due to its inability to withstand the harsh winter conditions that occur in many northern regions of the U.S.A. To identify loci associated with freezing tolerance in canola, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using a genotyped diversity panel containing 399 accessions consisting primarily of winter canola. One-month-old greenhouse grown plants were subsequently cold-acclimated for two months in an environmental growth chamber prior to phenotyping for freezing survival using a visual damage scale and chlorophyll fluorescence (Fv/Fo). There was reasonable correlation observed between visual damage and chlorophyll fluorescence ratings among the top associated loci; the results indicated that some loci contributed to both freezing damage/tolerance and photosynthetic efficiency. The resulting numerical values for phenotypes were used for association analyses with the identified SNPs. Thirteen significant markers were identified on nine chromosomes for the phenotypes scored, with several showing significance for multiple phenotypes. Twenty-five candidate genes were identified as previously associated with freezing tolerance, photosynthesis, or cold-responsive in canola or Arabidopsis.
