Remobilisation and Fate of Sulphur in Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea. L)
Understanding the basis of sulphur (S) use efficiency in higher S requiring crops such as brassicas can help develop more cost-effective cultivars. Oleriferous brassicas sequester reduced S in the mature seeds mainly as secondary metabolite-glucosinolate

A Study on the Wetting Properties of Broccoli Leaf Surfaces and their Time Dependent Self-Healing After Mechanical Damage [PDF]
Plants are protected from the elements by a complex hierarchical epicuticular wax layer which has inspired the creation of super-hydrophobic and self-cleaning surfaces. Although many studies have been conducted on different plant wax systems to determine the mechanisms of water repulsion hardly any have studied the recovery of the epicuticular wax ...

MIK2 is a candidate gene of the S-locus for sporophytic self-incompatibility (SSI) in chicory (Cichorium intybus, Asteraceae) [PDF]
The Cichorium genus offers a unique opportunity to study the sporophytic self incompatibility (SSI) system, being composed of species characterized by highly efficient SI (C. intybus) and complete self compatibility (C. endivia). The chicory genome was used to map 7 previously identified SSI locus-associated markers.
