To produce hybrid seeds of Wutacai (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis (L.) Makino var. rosularis Tsen et Lee), a "directional transfer program" was designed to breed the multiple-allele male sterile line of Wutacai. A multiple-allele male sterile line of Naibaicai (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis L., S01) was used as the male sterile resource, and an inbred line of Wutacai (WT01) was ...

single and joint toxicity of chloramphenicol and hg acting on wheat (triticum aestivum l.), chinese cabbage (brassica campestris l.) and corn (zea mays l.) were investigated. the results showed positive correlations between root elongation inhibition of three plants and concentrations of pollutants added to soil (p

Lema, M., Soengas, P., Velasco, P., Francisco, M., and Cartea, M. E. 2011. Identification of sources of resistance to Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris in Brassica napus crops. Plant Dis. 95:292-297. Black rot, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, is one of the most important diseases affecting Brassica crops worldwide. Nine races have been differentiated in X. campestris pv. ca...

The fermentation product of herbs by lactic acid bacteria (FHL) was assayed for antifungal activities against Rosellinia necatrix, Helicobasidium mompa, Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium graminicola and Pyricularia oryzae. FHL completely inhibited the growth of R. necatrix, H. mompa, P. graminicola and P. oryzae, and reduced the growth of F. oxysporum by 35%. When the seeds of Medicago sativa L. (alf...

Self-incompatibility in Brassica species is regulated by a set of S-locus genes: SLG, SRK, and SP11/SCR. In the vicinity of the S-locus genes, several expressed genes, SLL2 and SP2/ClpP, etc., were identified in B. campestris. Arabidopsis thaliana is a self-compatible Brassica relative, and its complete genome has been sequenced. From comparison of the genomic sequences between B. campestris an...

The recent study was carried out for the comparative analysis of heavy metals in Brassica campestris and Raphanus sativus irrigated with municipal waste water of Sargodha city. Field surveys were done for this experiment. Three experimental sites i.e Bhalwal road, Ajnala road and Faisalabad road were selected in Sargodha city for field surveys. Vegetables samples were collected from these sites...

BACKGROUND Rapeseed-mustard is the second most important source of edible oil in India. Several species of Brassica are grown in different parts of country for its oilseeds. OBJECTIVE The objective was to investigate allergenicity to antigenic extracts of pollen of 4 species of Brassica. METHODS Brassica campestris, Brassica juncea, Brassica nigra, and Brassica napus were selected for the d...

(S)-2-Hydroxy-3-butenylglucosinolate (epi-progoitrin) was converted to erythroand threo-1-eyano-2-hydroxy3,4-epithiobutanes by combinations of th~oglucoside glucohydrolase and epithiospecifier protein (ESP) from various sources. In all combinations studied the erythro/threo product ratio was about 1.4, except when the thioglucoside glucohydrolase was from Sinapis alba L. and the ESP from Brassi...
