Brassica juncea mainly including leaf mustard,stem mustard,root mustard and moss mustard belongs to the large Brassicaceae brassica crop.Because the mustard with a small flower organ is mainly self pollinated under natural conditions,cytoplasmic male sterile(CMS) is an effective mean to utlize the heterosis of mustard hybrids.Now,CMS systems were widely studied in Brassica juncea,including hau CMS, oxa CMS and so on.The progress of the CMS and heterosis utilization in Brassica juncea were reviewed.The directions and goals of heterosis utilization were put forward.It will provide the theoretical foundation and material origin for utilizing heterosis of mustard vegetables.
