蕓薹(學名:Brassica rapa),又稱為油菜。是一種被耕種作為葉菜(如小白菜、大白菜、菜心)、根用植物(如蕪菁)和作為植物油(非常見的甘藍型油菜,詳見油菜)的植物。 在十八世紀時,卡爾·林奈視蕪菁和油用的變種(即白菜型油菜)為不同的品種並分別命名為B. rapa和B. campestris。然而二十世紀的分類學家發現這些植物是異體受精(英语:Allogamy),因此認為是相同的物種。自從蕪菁已先被林奈氏命名,Brassica rapa則被繼承下來作為種學名。 此品種的種子即是植物油的來源(即白菜型油菜)。但較為常見的品種為甘藍型油菜(Brassica napus)和芥菜型油菜(Brassica juncea)。
