- Abstract:
- ... An increasing number of medical studies is focusing the attention on the benefits of a higher intake of Brassica vegetables and the decrease of the onset of several human chronic pathologies. This health-promoting activity of Brassicaceae is mainly due to the presence of bioactive compounds characteristic of this genus. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in the composition of ...

- Abstract:
- ... Vegetable crops of Brassica oleracea contain significant amounts of antioxidant compounds, such as glucosinolates (GLS) which, upon disruption of the tissue, are broken down by the endogenous enzyme myrosinase (MYR), resulting in production of isothiocyanates, thiocyanates, nitriles, goitrin and epithionitriles. In particular, isothiocyanates are known to exert beneficial effects for human health. ...

- Abstract:
- ... Global warming is currently enabling the expansion of winter oilseed rape cultivation to previously unsuitable regions. Nevertheless, extreme frost events may lead in some years to severe winter damage. On the other hand, early flowering winter oilseed rape cultivars are wanted because of increasingly warm temperatures in spring. An assumed correlation between winter hardiness and vernalization re ...

- Abstract:
- ... Rucola is a leafy vegetable from the Brassicaceae family with continuously increasing economic demand. Under this name rocket salad (Eruca sativa) as well as the perennial wall rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia) are commercially distributed. So far, for both species no hybrid system is available. Therefore, breeding lines of both species were used to pollinate cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) cauliflowe ...

- Abstract:
- ... The genus Brassica comprises a large number of species and subspecies that are consumed either as shoots, leaves, roots, turnip roots, etc. or in form of the seeds. Vegetative plant parts are merchandized mainly as raw product, whereas generative parts are marketed predominantly in a processed form either as oil, meal, powder, protein, condiment, etc. The glucosinolate content and composition of v ...

Wall rocket (Diplotaxis erucoides) is an herbaceous plant widespread in the Mediterranean region. As a leafy vegetable, this plant can be used as a component of salads, providing a characteristic, mild pungent flavour. Due to the potential interest of this species, we are initiating a breeding pr ...

- Abstract:
- ... In the hermaphroditic plants, floral morphological traits can significantly affect reproductive system by favouring the deposit of self or cross pollen. In the Brassica species, the self-incompatibility mechanism is undoubtedly the main cause of their allogamy; however, floral organs variation can modulate or reinforce the cross pollination level of the plants. In this study, we investigated flora ...
