BACKGROUND
Brassica vegetables contain a class of secondary metabolites, the glucosinolates (GS), whose specific degradation products determine the characteristic flavor and smell. While some of the respective degradation products of particular GS are recognized as health promoting substances for
Indol-3-ylmethylglucosinolate (glucobrassicin) occurs in most plants of the Brassicaceae family together with hydroxy and methoxy derivatives of glucobrassicin. These compounds and products produced therefrom have been the subject of considerable research interest due to their potential
Pak choi plants (Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis) were treated with different signaling molecules methyl jasmonate, jasmonic acid, linolenic acid, and methyl salicylate and were analyzed for specific changes in their glucosinolate profile. Glucosinolate levels were quantified using HPLC-DAD-UV, with
The glucosinolates (GLs) present in seed extracts of Brassica elongata Ehrh., B. botteri Vis and B. cazzae Ginzb. & Teyber from Croatia were identified by LC-MS. 4-Hydroxyindol-3-ylmethyl GL (3) was the major GL in the seeds of B. elongata, along with the four minor GLs 2-(R)-hydroxy-3-butenyl- (1),
Representing over 25% of the vegetable production, Brassicaceae crops are very important for Portuguese agriculture. Xanthomonas campestris pv. raphani (Xcr) was first described as the causative agent of a leaf spot disease affecting radish and turnip (4). Despite its ability to infect Solanaceae
The glucosinolate (GL) profiles of wild and cultivated Brassica montana Pourret (seed, stem, leaf, root) from southern France were established using LC-MS analysis. In this investigation we have confirmed the presence of 9 known GLs: but-3-enyl- (1), prop-2-enyl- (2), pent-4-enyl- (3),
Two auxin amidohydrolases, BrIAR3 and BrILL2, from Chinese cabbage [Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis (Lour.) Hanelt] were produced by heterologous expression in Escherichia coli, purified, and screened for activity towards N-(indol-3-ylacetyl)-L-alanine (IAA-Ala) and the long-chain auxin-amino acid
Kinetin stimulated phosphorylation of protein in floated Chinese-cabbage leaf discs, but inhibited protein phosphorylation in nuclei+chloroplast extracts from Chinese-cabbage or tobacco leaves. Kinetin also inhibited protein phosphorylation in isolated tobacco nuclei or nuclei from carrot
The effects of plant competition and herbivory on glucosinolate concentrations in cabbage root and foliage were investigated in a cabbage-red clover intercropping system. Cabbage plants were grown under different competitive pressures and with varying degrees of attack by root-feeding Delia floralis
The Brassicaceae family is characterized by a unique defence mechanism known as the 'glucosinolate-myrosinase' system. When insect herbivores attack plant tissues, glucosinolates are hydrolysed by the enzyme myrosinase (EC 3.2.1.147) into a variety of degradation products, which can deter further
BrILL2 is catalytically the most efficient auxin amidohydrolase from Brassica rapa, playing a key role in auxin metabolism by catalyzing its release from amino acid conjugates. Auxins, with the most abundant representative indole-acetic acid ([1H-indol-3-yl]-acetic acid, IAA), are a group of plant
Two novel glucosinolates along with one known glucosinolate were isolated from Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) florets. Their structures were established mainly by 1D ((1)H and (13)C NMR), 2D NMR ((1)H-(1)H COSY, DEPT 135°, HSQC and HMBC), and Tandem MS-MS spectrometric data as
We evaluated the effects of phosphate (Pi-deficiency: 0.1 mM; Pi-sufficiency: 0.5 mM), phosphite (low-Phi: 0.1 mM; medium-Phi: 0.5 mM; and high-Phi: 2.5 mM), and two mean daily photosynthetically active radiations (lower PAR: 22.2 mol ⋅ m-2 ⋅ d-1; higher PAR: 29.7 mol ⋅
Glucosinolates, a characteristic group of specialized metabolites found in Brassicales plants, are converted to toxic isothiocyanates upon herbivory. Several insect herbivores, including the cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala), prevent glucosinolate activation by forming
Ability of shoot regeneration from cotyledon explants of rapeseed (Brassica napus) winter genotypes and the effect of silver nitrate and naphthalene acetic acid in shoot regeneration were investigated. The optimum medium for regeneration was the medium supplemented with 3 mg L(-1)
