Abstract: Rape (Brassica napus) was used to study the expression of mitochondrial nad6gene during seed development.The result of quantitative dot blotting showed that nad6 gene expressed lower in leaves, but expressed stronger in every developmental seeds, and with a tendency of strengthening with the development progress.From this we deduce that mitochondrial nad6 gene may have other function besides its relation to respriation.

Key words: Rape (Brassica napus), Seed development, Mitochondrial nad6 gene, Specific expression, Quantitative dot blotting
