Potential Phytoextraction with in-vitro regenerated plantlets of Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. in presence of CdCl$_2$: Cadmium accumulation and physiological parameter measurement [PDF]
Heavy metal contamination of agricultural land is partly responsible for limiting crop productivity. Cd$^{2+}$ is known as a non-essentiel HM that can be harmful to plants even at low concentrations. Brassica juncea (L.) is able to accumulate more than 400 $\mu$g.g$^{-1}$ D.W.

Measurement of trace elements in five popular medicinal plants using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis method (INAA) in Arak, Iran [PDF]
In this work, the specific mass of twelve elements were determined in five of the most commonly used medicinal plants as Caraway (Carum carvi), Savory (Satureia hortensis), Purslane (Portulaca oleracea), Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and Milk thistle (Silibum marianum) prepared from herbal pharmacies.

The Light Quanta Modulated Physiological Response of Brassica Juncea Seedlings Subjected to Ni(II) Stress [PDF]
This work is a study of the inter-relationship between parameters that principally affect metal up-take in the plant. The relationships between the concentration of metal in the growth medium, Cs, the concentration of metal absorbed by the plant, Cp, and the total biomass achieved, M, all of which are factors relevant to the efficiency of ...

Micropropagation of Brassica oleracea (Cole Crops)
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.

Harnessing promoter elements to enhance gene editing in plants: perspectives and advances
Summary Genome‐edited plants, endowed with climate‐smart traits, have been promoted as tools for strengthening resilience against climate change. Successful plant gene editing (GE) requires precise regulation of the GE machinery, a process controlled by the promoters, which drives its transcription through interactions with transcription factors (TFs ...

A homolog of the RPS2 disease resistance gene is constitutively expressed in Brassica oleracea
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).

Efficacy of Put and Spd sprayed on leaves from Brassica juncea plants against Cd2+-induced oxidative stress [PDF]
The protective effect exerted by polyamines (Put and Spd) against cadmium (Cd) stress was investigated in Brassica juncea plants. Treatment with CdCl2 (75 micro-Mole) resulted in a rise of Cd accumulation, a decrease of fresh and dry weights in every plant organ, an increase of free polyamine content at limb and stem levels as well as a decrease at ...

Combined enhancement of ascorbic acid, β‐carotene and zeaxanthin in gene‐edited lettuce
Summary Lettuce is widely grown and consumed but provides lower nutritional value compared to other leafy greens, particularly in the essential vitamins A and C. To address this, major control points in carotenoid and ascorbic acid (AsA) production were targeted using a viral‐based CRISPR/Cas9 system in the commercial lettuce cultivar ‘Noga’.
