Mustard Brassica Spp 1 Did You Know? Mustard Brassica spp. • Mustard can be grown for edible greens or for the seeds which are used whole, crushed or powdered in sauces, condiments, salad dressings. • The Brassicaceae (formerly Cruciferae) family includes mustard as well as broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussel sprouts and cabbage. • There are several species that are all considered mustard: B. juncea – brown and Indian mustard; B. nigra – black mustard, the spiciest or most pungent in flavor; Sinapis alba – yellow mustard, the most mild flavor. • Since black mustard has to be hand harvested, it is not grown commercially. • Favorite mustards like Dijon, yellow, spicy brown, and even the hot mustard found in Chinese restaurants, all come from B. juncea. • The French are the largest consumers of mustard with an average of 1.5 lbs./person/year. • The use of mustard as a flavoring and medicine dates back to 3000 BCE and is mentioned in Greek and Roman writings of the time. • Hippocrates as well as other ancient physicians used mustard medicinally. • Herbal, published in 1597 by herbalist John Gerard, recommends mustard to aid digestion, warm the stomach and stimulate the appetite. • Over time, medicinal uses have included treating circulation, heart and lung problems, fevers, flu, rheumatism and toothaches. A plaster made to cover the chest to facilitate breathing was very common. • The Romans made possibly the first mustard by combining fermented grape juice with mustard seeds, oil and honey to form a spreadable paste. • Cultures around the world use mustard as both prepared spreads and in seed form in cuisines of their regions. • It is the enzyme myrosin that is released from the mustard seed when bruised or crushed and mixed with liquid that gives mustard its heat. • Young leaves of the mustard plant are popular to grow as greens. Newer introductions B. juncea include: 'Mizuna Red Kingdom F1', 'Tatsoi Black Knight' and 'Garnet Red'.

  • Antioxidant and Antibacterial Properties of Endogenous Phenolic Compounds from Commercial Mustard Products
    Antioxidant and antibacterial properties of endogenous phenolic compounds from commercial mustard products By Ronak Fahmi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Human Nutritional Sciences University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Canada Copyright © 2016 by Ronak Fahmi Abstract This study investigated the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of endogenous phenolic compounds in Oriental (Brassica junceae) and yellow (Sinapis alba) mustard seeds. Phenolics in selected Canadian mustard products (seeds/ powder/ flour) were extracted using Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE) and their corresponding sinapate profiles were established through HPLC-DAD analysis. The antioxidant capacity of each extract was assessed by DPPH assay and correlated with the total phenolic content (TPC) measured using the Folin–Ciocalteau method. Sinapine was the major phenolic compound in all the samples analysed, with negligible amounts of sinapic acid. The sinapine content, expressed as sinapic acid equivalents (SAE), ranged from 5.36 × 103 ± 0.66 to 14.44 ± 0.43 × 103 µg SAE/g dry weight of the samples, with the highest in the yellow mustard seed extract and lowest in Oriental mustard powder. The level decreased in the following order: yellow mustard seed > Oriental mustard seed > yellow mustard bran > Oriental mustard bran > yellow mustard powder > Oriental mustard powder. Extracts from yellow mustard seeds had the highest TPC (17.61× 103 ± 1.01 µg SAE/g), while Oriental mustard powder showed the lowest TPC with 4.14 × 103 ± 0.92 µg SAE/g. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of mustard methanolic extracts ranged between 36% and 69%, with the following order for both varieties: ground mustard seed > mustard bran > mustard powder.

    7 Current Science International, 3(1): 7-14, 2014 ISSN: 2077-4435 Effect of Various Levels of Organic Fertilizer and Humic Acid on the Growth and Roots Quality of Turnip Plants (Brassica rapa). Aisha, H. Ali, M.R. Shafeek, Mahmoud, R. Asmaa and M. El- Desuki Vegetable Research Department National Research Center Cairo, Egypt. ABSTRACT Two field experiments were carried out during the two seasons of 2011 and 2012 at the experimental station of National Research Centre, Beheira Governorate (North of Egypt) to investigate the effect of organic compost manure fertilizer at rates of (0, 10 and 20 m3/fed.) as well as humic acid at rate of (2, 4 and 6 L/fed.) for influence plant growth, roots physical and chemical quality of turnip plants c.v. Balady. The important obtained results were as following: 1- Adding organic compost manure (produced from recycling the agriculture residues) at high rates (20 m3/fed.) had a significant effect on growth characters, i.e. plant length, number of leaves/plant, fresh and dry weight/plant as well as root fresh and dry weight and its components (root length and diameter). Also, gave the highest percentage of protein, N, P, K and Fe ppm as well as total carbohydrate percentage. 2- By increasing rate of humic acid increased growth characters, root yield characters and increment the percentage of protein, N, P, K, carbohydrate and Fe contents of turnip root tissues. 3- The highest values of the growth characters, roots characters and the percentage of protein, N, P, K, carbohydrate and Fe content ppm in turnip root tissues were associated with that plants received higher compost level (20 m3/fed.) with higher level of humic acid (6 L/fed.).

  • Improving the Solubility of Yellow Mustard Precipitated Protein Isolate in Acidic Aqueous Solutions
    IMPROVING THE SOLUBILITY OF YELLOW MUSTARD PRECIPITATED PROTEIN ISOLATE IN ACIDIC AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS BY L. KARINA LORENZO A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc.) Graduate Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Laura Karina Lorenzo (2008) Improving the Solubility of Yellow Mustard Precipitated Protein Isolates in Acidic Aqueous Solutions M.A.Sc. Thesis 2008 Laura Karina Lorenzo Graduate Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto ABSTRACT The thesis objective was to investigate methods for improving the solubility of yellow mustard precipitated protein isolate (RTech Laboratories, USA) to allow for its use in protein enhanced acidic beverages along with soluble protein isolate in the pH range of 2 to 4.5. Four treatments were tested: hydrolysis with Alcalase®; cross-linking with transglutaminase; salting in with sodium chloride, sodium tripolyphosphate, and sodium hexametaphosphate; and protective colloid formation with pectin. The effectiveness of each was determined by its ability to improve nitrogen solubility (Nx6.25, AOCS-Ba11-65). The most effective treatments were hydrolysis and pectin stabilization. Pectin (1.5 w/v%) improved solubility from 6% to 29% at pH 4. Alcalase increased solubility from 20% to 70% at pH 3 after 2 h of hydrolysis (0.5AU/5g PPI, pH 8.5, 50-55oC) and eliminated the protein’s isoelectric point in the acidic pH range. Investigating the combined use of both treatments to further increase PPI solubility is recommended. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank Professor Diosady, my supervising professor, for his invaluable guidance and support throughout the project.

Sustainable alternative measures such as cultural controls can be effective in integrated pest management of Bemisia, but have received relatively little research effort. “Push – pull” strategies are a form of cultural control based on behavioral manipulation of insect pests and their natural enemies. Pests are repelled from a protected re- source (“push” component) and simultaneously attracted to a trap crop (“pull” component) where they are subse- quently removed, preferably through biological control or other appropriate means. In this study, we conducted laboratory studies using an olfactometer or odor-detecting equipment to determine the effect of volatiles from whole plants and plant oils to repel the sweetpotato whitefly. In addition to volatiles, we tested responses to colors known to attract whitefly adults. Finally, we monitored whitefly behavior using a video recorder and behavioral analysis software in response to repellent oils.
