Oilseed rape mutant with non-abscising floral organs. Clerotinia stem rot (SSR), caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a detrimental fungal disease for oilseed rape. Petal infection is crucial to the prevalence of SSR in oilseed rape. Oilseed rape varieties with abscission-defective ﬂoral organs were predicted to be less susceptible to Sclerotinia infection and to have a longer ﬂowering period to enhance tourism income.
