Shoot yield drives phosphorus use efficiency in Brassica oleracea and correlates with root architecture traits [PDF]
, 2009 The environmental and financial costs of using inorganic phosphate fertilizers to maintain crop yield and quality are high. Breeding crops that acquire and use phosphorus (P) more efficiently could reduce these costs.

Micropropagation of Brassica oleracea (Cole Crops)
, 1997 Brassica oleracea, (family Brassicaceae), also referred to as cole crops (Nieuwhof 1969; Yamaguchi 1983; Nonnecke 1989), is an economically important vegetable species composed mostly of biennially herbaceous plants, grown as annuals or biennials, depending on the part harvested.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Improving the nutritional quality of crops is crucial for human health, livestock, and agricultural productivity, especially on nutrient‐limited soils. To address this, we investigated the variation and the genetic basis of mineral content, including, among others, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc, in a diverse panel of maize (Zea mays L ...

A homolog of the RPS2 disease resistance gene is constitutively expressed in Brassica oleracea
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2003 In this study, we identified disease resistance gene homologs in Brassica oleracea and assessed their expression in lines resistant and susceptible to Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc).

The Epigenetic Regulation of Agronomic Traits and Environmental Adaptability in Brassicas
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As essential sources of vegetables, oilseeds, and forage, Brassica crops exhibit complex epigenetic regulation mechanisms involving histone modifications, DNA modifications, RNA modifications, noncoding RNAs, and chromatin remodelling. The agronomic traits and environmental adaptability of crops are regulated by both genetic and epigenetic ...

Functional alleles of the flowering time regulator
BMC Plant Biology, 2012 Background Plants adopt different reproductive strategies as an adaptation to growth in a range of climates. In Arabidopsis thaliana FRIGIDA (FRI) confers a vernalization requirement and thus winter annual habit by increasing the expression of the MADS ...
