Tipburn is an irreversible physiological disorder of Chinese cabbage that decreases crop value. Because of a strong environmental component, tipburn‐resistant cultivars are the only solution, although tipburn resistance genes are unknown in Chinese cabbage. We studied three populations of Chinese cabbage over four growing seasons under field conditions: (a) 194 diverse inbred lines, (b) a doubled haploid (DH100) population, and (c) an F2population. The 194 lines were genotyped using single nucleotide polymorphism markers, and genome‐wide‐association mapping showed that 24gQTLswere significantly associated with tipburn disease index. Analysis of the DH100 and F2populations identified a shared tipburn‐associated locus,gqbTRA06, that was found to cover the region defined by one of the 24gQTLs. Of 35 genes predicted in the 0.14‐Mb quantitative trait locus region,Bra018575(calreticulin family protein, BrCRT2) showed higher expression levels during disease development. We cloned the twoBrCRT2alleles from tipburn‐resistant (BrCRT2R) and tipburn‐susceptible (BrCRT2S) lines and identified a 51‐bp deletion inBrCRT2S. Overexpression ofBrCRT2Rincreased Ca2+storage in the Arabidopsiscrt2mutant and also reduced cell death in leaf tips and margins under Ca2+‐depleted conditions. Our results suggest thatBrCRT2is a possible candidate gene for controlling tipburn in Chinese cabbage.
