Abstract

Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. subsp. pekinensis) is a horticultural crop that exhibits variation in growth, qualitative characteristics, and yield among genotypes. Such variation is related to genetic material and is also influenced by environmental conditions and cultivation practices. This review aimed to examine the genetic material and the role of DNA in genetic variation and plant characteristics of Chinese cabbage. The method used was a literature review of scientific articles discussing Chinese cabbage, particularly genotype variation, growth, yield, and factors affecting plant characteristics. The results showed that differences among Chinese cabbage genotypes can be observed through quantitative and qualitative characteristics, including plant growth, head characteristics, and yield. Genotype performance may vary across different growing environments, indicating the influence of genotype and environmental interactions. Nutrient availability, solar radiation, growing media, cultivation practices, and biotic factors also affect the expression of plant characteristics. DNA functions as genetic material that stores hereditary information and provides the genetic basis for plant characteristics. Therefore, understanding genetic material, DNA, genotype variation, and environmental interactions is important for characterizing and utilizing Chinese cabbage genetic resources to support crop development and breeding
