Performance of specialist and generalist herbivores feeding on cabbage cultivars is not explained by glucosinolate profiles

, 2008
Plants display a wide range of chemical defences that may differ in effectiveness against generalist and specialist insect herbivores. Host plant-specific secondary chemicals such as glucosinolates (GS) in Brassicaceae typically reduce the performance of

BjuBBX6-1 interacts with BjuNF-YB2/3 to regulate flowering time and drought tolerance in Brassica juncea

Horticultural Plant Journal
An inappropriate flowering time and drought stress resistance in Brassica juncea (mustard) will decrease its yield and quality. B-box (BBX) transcription factors play an important role in the regulation of flowering and drought tolerance, but the ...

Plants, people and their shared heritage: A comparative medicinal and wild food ethnobotany of Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians living in the Gjirokaster area, southern Albania

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional knowledge about wild plants connects people to nature and sustains both cultural identity and biodiversity. This study explores how cultural exchange among Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians in southern Albania shapes the use and naming of medicinal and food plants.

Mechanisms of resistance in Brassica carinata, B. napus and B. juncea to Pseudocercosporella capsellae

, 2016
Studies were undertaken to compare susceptible and resistant host responses to Pseudocercosporella capsellae in cotyledons of Brassica carinata, B. juncea and B. napus in order to define the mechanisms of resistance in these three species.

Transport engineering as a strategy to realize rapeseed's potential as a protein‐rich food

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The heavily pesticide‐dependent rapeseed is an under‐utilized protein source for food owing to anti‐nutritional glucosinolates. Transport engineering technology may reduce glucosinolates in seeds while increasing defense in vegetative parts. Abstract Rapeseed is the world's second‐largest oilseed crop, and the low‐value press cake that remains after ...

Alternaria brassicae causes leaf spots on Brassica juncea in Brazil [PDF]

Australasian Plant Disease Notes, 2020
Alternaria brassicae is reported, for the first time in Brazil, causing leaf spots on common brown mustard (Brassica juncea). A morphological and molecular identification was performed confirming the identity of the fungus and Koch’s postulates were fulfilled through inoculation of healthy plants with a conidial suspension.

Evidence for differential resistance to Peronospora parasitica (downy mildew) in Brassica juncea (mustard) at the cotyledon stage

, 1995
Thirty-one Brassica juncea accessions were screened at the cotyledon stage for resistance to four isolates of Peronospora parasitica. Isolates R1 and P003 were derived from crops of oilseed rape (B. napus ssp.

Pathological and biochemical changes in Brassica juncea (mustard) infected with Albugo candida (white rust) [PDF]

, 2009
Components of disease reaction, including incubation period, pustule types, inoculum production and disease index (DI); and contents of protein, phenols, soluble sugars and reducing and non-reducing sugars were investigated in cotyledonary and true ...

Agronomic challenges from novel pathotypes of Albugo candida to the emerging Brassica juncea industry in Western Australia

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2013
It can be difficult to predict the outcome when a newly introduced crop is challenged by a specialized obligate phytopathogen. This case study explores the potential of Albugo candida, which causes white blister (WB) of Brassicas, to evolve into a major ...
