In Indonesia, cruciferous cabbage is known as Ceciwis (Brassica oleracea var. capitata alba), a vegetable that can be consumed diet. member of the Brassica family, which has been shown to have chemo-preventive action. The existence antioxidant activity confirms its efficacy. Further research required. Antioxidant will undoubtedly affected by extraction procedure and circumstances. objective o

Brassica napus is a leading oilseed crop throughout many parts of the world. It is well adapted to long day photoperiods, however, it does not adapt well to short day subtropical regions. Short duration B. napus plants were resynthesized through ovary culture from interspecific crosses in which B. rapa cultivars were reciprocally crossed with B. oleracea. From five different combinations, 17 hy...

INTRODUCTION Brassica vegetables have been related to the prevention of cancer and degenerative diseases, owing to their glucosinolate and phenolic content. OBJECTIVE Identification of glucosinolates, flavonoids and hydroxycinnamic acids in representative varieties of kale, cabbage and leaf rape. METHODOLOGY One local variety of each crop was evaluated in this study using a multi-purpose ch...

Planning the artificial pollination of agricultural crops requires knowledge of the floral biology and reproductive system of the crop in question. Many studies have shown that rapeseed (Brassica napus Linnaeus) is self-compatible and self-pollinated, but its productivity may be increased by insect visitation. In the present study, the floral biology and the response of productivity to insect v...

We have developed an approach to facilitate the use of model organism microarrays in related, nonmodel organisms. We demonstrate the method by using Arabidopsis oligonucleotide microarrays to analyze gene expression in Brassica. Probes with low hybridization signals to Brassica genomic DNA were excluded from the transcriptional analysis of an Arabidopsis microarray at the software level, formin...

The US industry uses :18 million kg of high erucic acid oil annually, mostly from imports. Therefore, a large overall market potential exists for development of annually renewable domestic sources of erucic acid. The present research was conducted to characterize the winter hardy rapeseed germplasm for oil, erucic acid, and glucosinolate contents for use in breeding programs to develop commerci...

Oilseed rape is known to persist in arable fields because of its ability to develop secondary seed dormancy in certain agronomic and environmental conditions. If conditions change, rapeseeds are able to germinate up to 10 years later to build volunteers in ensuing crops. Extrapolations of experimental data acted on the assumption of persistence periods for more than 20 years after last harvest ...
