Assessment of molecular diversity of Brassica oleracea var. acephala
Family Brassicaceae is abundant in species used in food production, but also contains many industrial species, vegetables and ornamentals. Green collard (Brassica oleracea var. acephala L.) was traditionally grown in Balkan Peninsula and its wide green leaves, rich in vitamins A and C, are used for cooking. There is great diversity in B.

Microbial biostimulant application increased germination, growth and nutrient availability in ornamental kale grown in both peat‐based and peat‐free substrates. Improvements in phosphorus and potassium availability and reduced bulk density in peat‐free media highlight the potential of microbial biostimulants to enhance plant establishment and support ...

Antioxidants enzyme activity in Brassica oleracea var. acephala under cadmium stress
When a plant is under heavy metals stress, it has different mechanism of coping with it. Brassica oleracea var. acephala (kale) is a plant that has an ability of heavy metal accumulation and removal of heavy metals from the ground. The plants were exposed to 50, 100, 200, and 500 μM of CdCl2 for 5days, in controlled in vitro conditions.

ABSTRACT The Australian Crop Mirid (ACM), Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae), is highly polyphagous and is endemic to Australia. It is widely distributed across Australia and New Zealand and feeds on a wide range of agricultural crops. ACM has traditionally been a pest of forage crops and legumes but has recently emerged as a key pest of several

ABSTRACT As drought events become more severe, understanding drought‐tolerance traits in crops is vital for food security. Brassica oleracea L., a widely consumed vegetable (including cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli), has seen a rise in cultivation, but the response of different genotypes to drought remains poorly studied.

Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering
This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.
