Li et al. Horticulture Research (2020) 7:212 Horticulture Research https://doi.org/10.1038/s41438-020-00449-z www.nature.com/hortres ARTICLE Open Access A chromosome-level reference genome of non- heading Chinese cabbage [Brassica campestris (syn. Brassica rapa)ssp. chinensis] Ying Li 1,Gao-FengLiu1,Li-MingMa2,Tong-KunLiu 1, Chang-Wei Zhang 1, Dong Xiao1, Hong-Kun Zheng2, Fei Chen1 and Xi-Lin Hou 1 Abstract Non-heading Chinese cabbage (NHCC) is an important leafy vegetable cultivated worldwide. Here, we report the ﬁrst high-quality, chromosome-level genome of NHCC001 based on PacBio, Hi-C, and Illumina sequencing data. The assembled NHCC001 genome is 405.33 Mb in size with a contig N50 of 2.83 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 38.13 Mb. Approximately 53% of the assembled genome is composed of repetitive sequences, among which long terminal repeats (LTRs, 20.42% of the genome) are the most abundant. Using Hi-C data, 97.9% (396.83 Mb) of the sequences were assigned to 10 pseudochromosomes. Genome assessment showed that this B. rapa NHCC001 genome assembly is of better quality than other currently available B. rapa assemblies and that it contains 48,158 protein-coding genes, 99.56% of which are annotated in at least one functional database. Comparative genomic analysis conﬁrmed that B. rapa NHCC001 underwent a whole-genome triplication (WGT) event shared with other Brassica species that occurred after the WGD events shared with Arabidopsis. Genes related to ascorbic acid metabolism showed little variation among the three B. rapa subspecies. The numbers of genes involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis and catabolism 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; were higher in NHCC001 than in Chiifu and Z1, due primarily to tandem duplication.

Abstract Phytotoxicity of dredged sediment from Hangzhou section of the Grand Canal as land application was evaluated by pakchoi (Brassica chinensis L.) germination tests and pot experiments. Germination rates of pakchoi in the dredged sediment and in sediment-applied soils were both significantly higher than that in the soil controls, while the germination rate between the sediment- applied soils was no significant difference. In pot experiments, plant height and biomass were increased by the dredged sedi- ment application rate in the rate of lower than 540 t haÀ1, but decreased when the application rate was over this rate. Concentra- tions of Zn and Cu in pakchoi were linearly increased with the increasing of the application rate of the dredged sediment. Both plant height and biomass of pakchoi in sediment-treated red soil were higher than that in sediment-treated paddy soil, regardless the application rate. The results suggest that plant biomass of pakchoi may be used as an indicator of the phytotoxicity of the dredged sediment.

Department of Agronomy and Plant Breeding, Islamic Azad University-Sanandaj Branch, Iran. 2. College of Agriculture, University of Zanjan, Zanjan, Iran. 3. Department of Plant breeding, Faculty of Agriculture University of Zabol * Corresponding author, R. Talebi, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Information on genetic diversity and genetic relationships among taxa of Brassica rapa (n=10, AA genome) is currently limited. The genetic diversity and the relationships among rapeseed germplasm, including a collection of 47 genotypes from different countries were evaluated using inter simple sequence repeat DNA markers. A total of 99 different polymorphic amplification products were obtained using 12 selected primers. ISSRs revealed a significant level of polymorphism among the accessions. Cluster analysis based on unweighted pair group method comparison divided the studied accessions into three main clusters. Group 1 consisted mainly of Oil and turnip types. Group 2 included a mixture of all three oil, turnip and cabbage types. Group 3 consisted mainly of cabbage and oil types. Also based on the origin, most of the Chinese and Korean Brasica rapa accessions were grouped in cluster 3. The cabbage accessions that tested in this study, were found to be extremely genetically unique and closer together in comparison with Oilseed and turnip types. The results indicate the occurrence of a considerable genetic variation between Chinese and European accessions.

Only grown for a limited time during the summer, highland cabbage accounts for a significant proportion of South Korea’s annual cabbage production. Thus, it has a profound effect on the formation of cabbage prices. Traditionally, labor-extensive and time- consuming field surveys are manually carried out to derive agricultural field maps of the highlands. Recently, high-resolution overhead images of the highlands have become readily available with the rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and remote sensing technology. In addition, deep learning-based semantic segmentation models have quickly advanced by recent improvements in algorithms and computational resources. In this study, we propose a semantic segmentation framework based on state-of-the-art deep learning techniques to automate the process of identifying Citation: Jo, Y.; Lee, S.; Lee, Y.; cabbage cultivation fields.

How to Grow Salad Greens in Wisconsin
How to grow salad greens in Wisconsin by Robin Mittenthal, January 2010 Important notes about this guide and about greens: 1) This guide is a small section of a book-length manual for beginning gardeners called From the Ground Up . The manual includes more information about how to grow the crops discussed here, as well as general explanations of fertilizer, compost, weed management, and other related topics. It is available for free online at the following ad- dress: http://www.eagleheightsgardens.org/tips/garden_manual_v_1.1.pdf 2) Most greens (especially lettuce, endive, radicchio, and spinach) do not do well in the hot, dry weather we tend to have in Wisconsin in July and August. You may choose not to grow greens at this time, or you can try covering your greens with material known as “floating row cover” (available at most local garden stores), which can help your greens stay moist and may improve your success growing greens during hot weather. However, be prepared for your greens to “bolt” (get tall, get bitter, and go to seed) quickly when temperatures rise. 3) Many greens (especially spinach, tat soi, arugula, and bok choi) do well even in very cold weather. These greens can be planted in Wisconsin as early as late March. You can also plant them in late August or early September and they will grow and be edible through at least the first light frosts of the year. Floating row cover (mentioned above) is also helpful at these times because it holds in heat and helps the greens grow faster.

Chinese Cabbage
THE CHINESE CABBAGE 1. DESCRIPTION OF PLANT Chinese cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata L.) is a hardy biennial grown as an annual. It has broad, thick, tender leaves and heavy midribs. There are several varieties of Chinese cabbage, some are loose head and some are tight headed. Plants grow from 15 to 18 inches tall. The common names of the plant are Chinese cabbage, white cabbage, flowering cabbage, celery cabbage, pakchoy, Michihli, and Napa cabbage. It originated from China. Although, they are members of the cabbage family, these cabbages are more delicately flavored than most coles. 2. ORIGIN AND MAJOR TYPES Chinese cabbage is also known as pechay Baguio or wongbok. Together with cabbage and broccoli, it belongs to a group of cultivated varieties of the species B. oleracea, called “cole crops”. It is grown for its leaves, which are a good source of vitamin C and calcium, but are low in fat and calories. In 2006, Chinese cabbage contributed around P1.08B to the local economy. The popular variety type in the Cordillera Administrative Region is the barrel-type while in the southern Philippines the michihili type is preferred. 3. PRODUCTION TRENDS Production in 2006 was 37,171 tons , up by 0.30% from the output of the previous year 92005) at 37,062 tons. The major producer of Chinese cabbage is the Cordillera Administrative Region. 4. VARIETIES 1. China Express -It has a maturity period of 55 - 60 days. Its shape is large barrelled and weighs 1.5 - 2.5 kgs, light green in color. It has multiple disease 1 | P a g e resistance and tolerant to bacterial soft rot.
