Cadmium (Cd), which is a nonessential heavy metal element for organisms, can have a severe impact on the growth and development of organisms that absorb excessive Cd. Studies have shown that Brassica carinata, a semiwild oil crop, has strong tolerance to various abiotic stresses, and RNA-seq has rev...
