Insect Science, EarlyView.We report the first high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly for the aphid Uroleucon formosanum, a serious pest that infests lettuce in eastern Asia. A combination of comparative genomic analyses and RNA‐seq transcriptome profiling suggests that U. formosanum employs integrative mechanisms to cope with host plant‐derived sesquiterpene lactone (STL)

PLoS ONE, 2007 BackgroundGlucosinolates are natural metabolites in the order Brassicales that defend plants against both herbivores and pathogens and can attract specialized insects. Knowledge about the genes controlling glucosinolate regulation is limited.

Insect attraction versus plant defense: young leaves high in glucosinolates stimulate oviposition by a specialist herbivore despite poor larval survival due to high saponin content. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Glucosinolates are plant secondary metabolites used in plant defense. For insects specialized on Brassicaceae, such as the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L.

Isolation of glucosinolate degrading microorganisms and their potential for reducing the glucosinolate content of rapemeal [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1994 A range of microorganisms were assessed for their ability to degrade glucosinolates, using sinigrin (2-propenyl glucosinolate) as a model compound. Eight different species capable of growing on sinigrin as a sole carbon source were isolated. These were predominantly Gram-positive bacteria which also degraded the natural glucosinolates within rapemeal ...

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is an important pest of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in Europe. The objective of the present study was to gain a better understanding of host plant related factors affecting its oviposition behaviour with the aim of developing new sustainable control strategies.

Biochemical mechanism of resistance in some Brassica genotypes against Lipaphis erysimi (Kaltenbach) (Homoptera: Aphididae) [PDF]
Vegetos 2017, 26(2): 387-395, 2017 Two years study was carried out during 2006-07 and 2007-08 crop seasons to study the response of different genotypes of oilseeds Brassica to Lipaphis erysimi (Kaltenbach) infestation both under field and screen house conditions and to find out the relationship of various biochemical constituents to aphid infestation.

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.This study evaluated the population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (SRN) in field rotations with cover crops and the subsequent effect of this rotation on sugar beet quality and quantity attributes. It was clear that the SRN densities under field conditions are influenced by multiple factors, such as the type of cover crops grown, soil disturbance ...

Glucosinolate types and concentrations in seedlings of different Brassica species used for food [PDF]
, 2005 Brassicaceous food crops contain in their tissues different quantities of the glucoside allelochemicals known as glucosinolates (Bellostas et al., 2004; Sørensen, 1990).

Systematic Study of the Content of Phytochemicals in Fresh and Fresh-Cut Vegetables [PDF]
, 2015 Vegetables and fruits have beneficial properties for human health, because of the presence of phytochemicals, but their concentration can fluctuate throughout the year. A systematic study of the phytochemical content in tomato, eggplant, carrot, broccoli
