Abstract Vegetation has successfully been used for cleaning up metal(loid) polluted water bodies and lands through extracting and accumulating of contaminants in their aboveground biomass (phytoextraction). As this remediation technique is approaching extensive demonstration scale application and potential commercialisation, research efforts have been ...

Abstract Plants have evolved diverse reproductive allocation strategies and seed traits to aid in dispersal, persistence in the seed bank, and establishment. In particular, seed size, dormancy, and early seedling vigor are thought to be key functional traits with important recruitment and fitness consequences across abiotic stress gradients.

Cruciferous vegetables (Brassica oleracea) confer cytoprotective effects in Drosophila intestines
Varieties and cultivars of the cruciferous vegetable Brassica oleracea are widely presumed to elicit positive influences on mammalian health and disease, particularly related to their indole and sulforaphane content.

Resistance to the Cabbage Aphid (Brevicoryne brassicae) in Brassica Plants [PDF]
A MARROW-STEM kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) selection segregated on selfing for plants with and without cuticular wax on their leaves, and it was observed in a natural field infestation that the non-waxy plants were not colonized by the cabbage aphid (Brevicoryne brassicae L.), whereas the normal, waxy plants had large colonies. The resistance

BRASSICA GENOME RESEARCH TOPIC Brassica species include important crops and provide unique materials for the study of genome evolution. These crops include six important vegetables and oilseed crops, which have been classically described by “U’s triangle’. The three diploid species B. rapa (A genome), B. nigra (B genome), and B.

Allele mining in Brassicas screened for A. brassicae resistance
The non-expresser of pathogenesis related gene 1 (NPR1) has been an important component of the SA/JA mediated mechanism of defence in plants. Brassicas have been major group of crop plants that are facing huge yield losses due to biotic stresses especially through Alternaria blight caused by Alternaria brassicae.

An abiotic UV-B stress on Brassicaceae seeds increased their phytochemical content on 7-days sprouts [PDF]
Purpose: Cruciferous sprouts in their early stages of development are very suitable foods against degenerative diseases due to their high content of health promoting compounds. The application of UV-B can act as an elicitor of these compounds.
