KEY MESSAGE: QTL mapping for fiber-related traits and elucidation of a stable and novel QTL affecting seed lignin content, cellulose content and seed oil content. Dissection of the genetic networks for fiber biosynthesis is important for improving the seed oil content and meal value of Brassica napus. In this study, the genetic basis of seed fiber biosynthesis in B. napus was investigated via quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis using a doubled haploid population derived from ‘KenC-8’ crossed with ‘N53-2.’ Seed lignin content (LC), cellulose content (CC) and hemicellulose content (HC) were significantly negatively correlated with seed oil content (OC). Co-localization QTLs among LC, CC, HC and OC on A09 were found with contributions ranging from 9.87 to 48.50%. Seven co-localization QTLs involved in the fiber component and OC were further verified by bulked segregant analysis (BSA). The unique QTL uqA9-12 might be a real and new QTL that was commonly identified by QTL mapping and BSA and simultaneously affected LC, CC and OC with opposite additive effects. A potential regulatory network controlling seed fiber biosynthesis was constructed to dissect the complex mechanism of seed fiber and oil accumulation, and numerous candidate genes were identified in the fiber-related QTL regions. These results provided an enrichment of QTLs and potential candidates for fiber biosynthesis, as well as useful new information for understanding the complex genetic mechanism underlying rapeseed seed fiber accumulation.
