BRASSICALES – AN ORDER OF PLANTS CHARACTERISED BY SHARED CHEMISTRY
Curtis's Botanical Magazine, 2010Among the many advances in our understanding of angiosperm relationships in recent decades due to the advent of DNA sequence data is the confirmation that all plants (apart from Drypetes) that produce mustard oil precursors are related to each other and should be treated as one order, Brassicales.

Genomics of small RNAs in the Brassicales
2022[EMBARGOED UNTIL 6/1/2023] In Chapter 1, I examined the relationship between TEs and genome size in the Brassicales, in Chapter 2 I characterized sRNAs in Brassicaceae, and in Chapter 3 I evaluate nat-siRNAs as a sRNA type. In this introduction, I provide background on the diversity of angiosperms, with special focus on the Brassicales order, plant ...

Annals of Botany, 2023
Abstract Background and Aims Tropaeolaceae (Brassicales) comprise ~100 species native to South and Central America. Tropaeolaceae flowers have a nectar spur, formed by a late expansion and evagination of the fused proximal region of the perianth (i.e. the floral tube).

Evolution spezifizierender Proteine der Ordnung Brassicales
2012Das Glucosinolat-Myrosinase-System ist ein pflanzliches Abwehrsystem der Brassicales. Spezifizierende Proteine sind Teil dieses aktivierten chemischen Abwehrsystems. Bei Gewebeverletzung kommt es zur Hydrolyse der Glucosinolate durch Myrosinasen. Die entstehenden Hydrolyseprodukte lagern sich entweder spontan in toxische, als Abwehrstoffe dienende ...

Brassicales: an update on chromosomal evolution and ancient polyploidy
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2018Brassicales comprise 17 families, c. 400 genera and more than 4600 species. Despite the mustard family (crucifers, Brassicaceae) continuing to be the subject of intensive research, the remaining 16 families are largely under studied. Here I summarize the available data on chromosome number and genome size variation across Brassicales in the context of ...

Wood Anatomy of Brassicales: New Information, New Evolutionary Concepts
The Botanical Review, 2016Wood anatomical data for the 19 families of Brassicales are presented, based on light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), arranged according to recent molecular phylogenetic evidence. Because of large species numbers and diversity in ecology and growth form, Brassicales are an ideal case study group for understanding wood evolution ...

Mitochondrion, 2014
To elucidate the evolution of mitochondrial genomic diversity within a single order of angiosperms, we sequenced seven Brassicales genomes and the transcriptome of Brassica oleracea. In the common ancestor of Brassicaceae, several genes of known function were lost and the ccmFN gene was split into two independent genes, which also coincides with a ...

The role of abiotic and biotic factors in glucosinolate changes in Brassicales
2022In this work the glucosinolate (GSL) contents in edible plants and the response of GSL contents to biotic and abiotic stress were analyzed. Fluctuations in GSL contents in Nasturtium officinale were determined in the course of a growing season and in administered N. officinale during a human trial.
