Objective: In recent years, farmers have shown great interest to using native drill planter rather than complex planters to grow vegetables. Methods: In this study, we tested a native planter Independent variables were the two types of substrate surface (asphalt and plowed field), three ground speed (3, 5 and 7 kph) and four types of seeds (tomatoes, onions, radishes and lettuce). Dependent var...

A total of 13 anthocyanins and 33 metabolites; including organic acids, phenolic acids, amino acids, organic compounds, sugar acids, sugar alcohols, and sugars, were profiled in three radish cultivars by using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOFMS)-based metabolite profiling. Total phenolics and flavonoids and their in vi...

Premise Hybrid gene pools harbor more genetic variation than progenitor populations. Thus, we expect hybrid populations to exhibit dynamic evolutionary responses environmental variation. We ask how experienced by adapted and transplanted influence the success of late-generation during invasion. Methods For four generations, 20 wild (Raphanus raphanistrum) radish (R. sativus × R. plant evolved u...

Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) is the first step key enzyme of flavonoid biosynthesis pathway which played an essential role in plant anthocyanin accumulation. Five PAL family gene members were identified radish ( Raphanus sativus  L.) genome name RsPAL1~5. Specific primers designed to amplify open reading frame red ‘Hongxin No.1’ and then sequenced. Real-time PCR was used a...

BACKGROUND Humans are exposed to toxins which accumulate in the body, and are detoxified primarily in the liver. Studies have shown that cruciferous vegetables (such as radishes) may be beneficial to health by aiding detoxification of toxins in the liver. METHODS This single-centre, open-label, pilot study investigated the effect of a dietary supplement containing Spanish Black Radish on hepa...
