    AnnotationWinter rape (Brassica napus L.), a bright yellow-flowering member of the Brassicaceae, is the single most important oilcrop, recognized as an alternative to cereals over the wide range of temperate agricultural regions. Thus, its adaptation to local climatic conditions is of special importance. The timing of flowering is a crucial determinant of the adaptation to the environment. Vernalization, i.e. the exposure of plants to a prolonged period of low temperatures is, beside photoperiodism, considered as most specific primary factor inducing and controlling generative development. Ecological, physiological and molecular aspects of vernalization of winter rape are dealt with in this review.
