Diversity of leafy Brassica oleracea landraces from eastern Adriatic coast (Croatia): morphological characterization and glucosinolate content [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture

Unique metabolism of different glucosinolates in larvae and adults of a leaf beetle specialised on Brassicaceae

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Brassicaceae plants contain glucosinolates, which are hydrolysed by myrosinases to toxic products such as isothiocyanates and nitriles, acting as defences. Herbivores have evolved various detoxification strategies, which are reviewed here.

Influence of pH and type of myrosinase complex on the products obtained in the myrosinase catalysed hydrolysis of glucosinolates – a MECC study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Environmental conditions, e.g. pH and the presence of Fe2+ are well known factors that influence the product profile of the myrosinase catalysed hydrolysis of glucosinolates.

Larval antibiosis to cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is absent within oilseed rape (Brassica napus)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We screened a panel of 98 Brassicaceae genotypes (97 Brassica napus and 1 Sinapis alba) for cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) larval antibiosis. We found limited evidence for antibiosis across B. napus but consistent antibiosis in S. alba. Brassicaceae relatives may therefore better inform resistance traits for breeding.

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products for weed control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Glucosinolates are allelochemicals present in all Brassica plants. Upon hydrolysis by endogenous enzymes they produce a series of biologically active compounds, such as isothiocyanates and their deriva-tives among others.

From A. rhizogenes RolD to Plant P5CS: Exploiting Proline to Control Plant Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The capability of the soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes to reprogram plant development and induce adventitious hairy roots relies on the expression of a few root-inducing genes (rol A, B, C and D), which can be transferred from large virulence ...

Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

A Combined Colon Organoid‐Sensory Neuron Model Reveals Epithelial Contribution to Moringin Efficacy Against Painful Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Experimental workflow and main findings of the study. ABSTRACT Visceral pain is a major symptom of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), requiring effective treatment strategies. Gut epithelium, beyond maintaining barrier integrity and microbiota homeostasis, modulates neurosensorial circuitries, influencing visceral sensitivity.

Leptosphaeria maculans Alters Glucosinolate Profiles in Blackleg Disease–Resistant and -Susceptible Cabbage Lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Blackleg, a fungal disease caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is one of the most devastating diseases of Brassica crops worldwide. Despite notable progress elucidating the roles of glucosinolates in pathogen defense, the complex interaction between B ...

Toxicity of Canola-Derived Glucosinolate Degradation Products in Pigs—A Review

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Canola co-products are widely included in swine diets as sources of proteins. However, inclusion of canola co-products in diets for pigs is limited by toxicity of glucosinolate degradation products.
