Turnip & Rutabaga
Turnip & Rutabaga Rutabagas and turnips are closely related root vegetables. Rutabagas are larger, denser, and sweeter with yellow flesh, while turnips are smaller and white with purple, red or green around the top. Both are a great source of vitamins and nutrients, and are inexpensive winter vegetables. Both the root and the greens are edible and delicious. Cooking Tips Rutabagas and turnips are great sautéed, steamed, boiled, and roasted. Both should be peeled using a vegetable peeler or knife before cooking. Rutabagas are a great substitute for potatoes, and turnips can be used in place of carrots or parsnips. Fresh turnip greens can be cooked like spinach. Rutabaga Storage Store in a cool dry place up to 1 week, or wrap loosely in plastic and store in refrigerator crisper drawer for 3-4 weeks. Large rutabagas are often coated with food-safe wax to prolong shelf life: Turnips simply remove wax with the peel before using. Quick Shepherd’s Pie Ingredients: • 1 lb rutabaga or turnip (or both) • ¼ cup low-fat milk • 2 tbsp butter • ½ tsp salt • ½ tsp pepper • 1 tbsp oil (olive or vegetable) • 1 lb ground lamb or beef • 1 medium onion, finely chopped • 3-4 carrots, chopped (about 2 cups) • 3 tbsp oregano • 3 tbsp flour • 14 oz chicken broth (reduced sodium is best) • 1 cup corn (fresh, canned, or frozen) Directions: 1. Chop the rutabaga/turnip into one inch cubes. 2. Steam or boil for 8-10 minutes, or until tender. 3. Mash with butter, milk, and salt and pepper. Cover and set aside. 4. Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. -
Improving the Root Vegetables
IMPROVING THE ROOT VEGETABLES C. F. PooLE, Cytologist, Division of Fruit and Vegetable Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant industry LJlD the ancient civilizations arise in the regions where our common cultivated food plants originated and were naturally abundant? Or did man take food plants with him, so that the early centers of civili- zation only seem to be the centers of origin of the plants? This must remain an interesting subject of speculation, but few students doubt that civilization was dependent on the natural locations of the plants. At any rate, the regions that are now believed to be the natural centers of origin of the root vegetables (40, 4^)/ which were used as food long before recorded history, include practically all of the centers of the oldest civilizations. The present belief is that in the Old World there were six of these, with five of which we are here concerned, and in the New World two major and two minor centers, all of which produced valuable root vegetables: (1) Central and western China—radish, turnip, taro (dasheen). (2) India (except northwestern India)—taro. (3) Middle Asia (Punjab and Kashmir)—turnip, rutabaga, radish, carrot. (4) Near Asia—turnip (secondary center), beet, carrot. (5) The Mediterranean—turnip, rutabaga, beet, parsnip, salsify. (6) Ethiopia—no root vegetables. (7) Mexico—swectpotato. (8) South America (major)—taro, potato. (8a) Chile—potato. (8b) Brazil-Paraguay—cassava. The theory is that the place where a plant exhibits the greatest diversity of subspecies and varieties in its natural state must have been a center of origin of that plant. -

Black Leg, Light Leaf Spot and White Leaf Spot in Crucifers
A CLINIC CLOSE-UP Black Leg, Light Leaf Spot, and White Leaf Spot in Western Oregon Oregon State University Extension Service January 2016 A number of foliar fungal diseases can affect crucifer crops. Three fungal pathogens have emerged recently in western Oregon where epidemics of black leg, light leaf spot, and white leaf spot have been occurring since 2014. Black leg has been detected sporadically in Oregon since the 1970’s but historically black leg has caused significant problems wherever crucifers were grown. Crucifer seed rules have been in place within Oregon, Washington, and other markets to protect crucifer crops from black leg. Light leaf spot is new to North America, but has been reported in other regions of the world where it is known to cause significant seed yield losses of winter oilseed rape. Light leaf spot and black leg can both result in reduced yields or quality, depending on disease incidence and severity in vegetable and seed fields. White leaf spot has been previously reported in the US, but management has not normally been needed except in the southeastern US. White leaf spot may be less of an economic threat to crucifer production in the Pacific Northwest, compared to the risks from black leg and light leaf spot. The complete host range for these three diseases is not known at this time but it is likely that all Brassica and Raphanus crops grown in the Pacific Northwest are susceptible to some degree. These three diseases may be found on volunteer Brassica, Raphanus, and Sinapis species as well as crucifer weed species including little bittercress (Cardamine oligosperma), western yellowcress (Rorippa curvisiliqua), field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense), wild radish (Raphanus sativus), shepherd’s purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris), hedge mustard (Sisymbrium officinale), and field mustard or birdsrape mustard (Brassica rapa var. -
Removal of Heavy Metals from a Contaminated Soil Using Phytoremediation
MATEC Web of Conferences 305, 00061 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/202030500061 SESAM 2019 Removal of heavy metals from a contaminated soil using phytoremediation Georgiana Luiza Arnold Tatu, Nicolae Valentin Vladut, Iulian Voicea, Nicoleta Alexandra Vanghele, and Mirabela Augustina Pruteanu*, National Research - Development Institute for Machines and Installations Designed to Agriculture and Food Industry, 6 Ion Ionescu De La Brad Blv., 013813 Bucharest, Sector 1, Romania Abstract. Environment pollution with heavy metals, can be a cause of the industrialization activities and technological processes, and has become an important issue. Soil contamination due to natural or anthropogenic causes (such as mining, smelting, warfare and military training, electronic industries, fossil fuel consumption, waste disposal, agrochemical use and irrigation) is a major environmental hazard. Various remediation techniques have been highlighted to clean or restore soils contaminated with heavy metals such physical, chemical or biological. Phytoremediation is a relatively new approach to removing contaminants from the environmental. It may be defined as the use of plants to remove, destroy or sequester hazardous substances from environmental. This paper is a review of removal of heavy metals from a contaminated soil using phytoremediation. 1 Introduction Brassicaceae is one of the largest angiosperm families, predominant in the temperate region and best cultivated around the Mediterranean. They belong to a group of natural plants conduplicate cotyledons (rare acumbent or existing) and the segment (rare lomentaceous or nucciform) fruit, usually in general, tanks and have flowers with four petals of equal size in the shape of a cross "crucifer" [1-5]. The Brassicaceae family can have a large number of genres and species: ranging from 338 to 380 genres and from 2500 to ca. -

In our previous study some extremely drought-tolerant/sensitive Eruca lines were obtained. However little is known about the mechanism for drought tolerance in Eruca. Methods: In this study two E. vesicaria subs. sativa lines with contrasting drought tolerance were treated with liquid MS/PEG solution. Total RNA was isolated from 7-day old whole seedlings and then applied to Illumina sequencing platform for high-throughput transcriptional sequencing. Results: KEGG pathway analysis indicated that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in alpha-Linolenic acid metabolism, Tyrosine metabolism, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, Galactose metabolism, Isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis, Tropane, Piperidine and pyridine alkaloid biosynthesis, Mineral absorption, were all up-regulated specifically in drought-tolerant (DT) Eruca line under drought stress, while DEGs involved in ribosome, ribosome biogenesis, Pyrimidine metabolism, RNA degradation, Glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, Citrate cycle, Methane metabolism, -
14/ 20176 EXTRAPOLATION TABLE for EFFECTIVENESS of FUNGICIDES ► DISEASES on VEGETABLE BRASSICAS
14/ 20176 EXTRAPOLATION TABLE for EFFECTIVENESS of FUNGICIDES ► DISEASES ON VEGETABLE BRASSICAS INTRODUCTION The table provides detailed lists of acceptable extrapolations organized by crop groups, for regulatory authorities and applicants, in the context of the registration of plant protection products for minor uses. The table should be used in conjunction with the EPPO Standard PP1/257(1) - Efficacy and crop safety extrapolations for minor uses. It is important to ensure that expert judgment and regulatory experience are employed when using these tables. EPPO excludes liability as to the reliability of the information provided through these tables. The scope for extrapolation may be extended as data and experience with a certain plant protection products increases. The applicant should always provide appropriate justification and information to support the proposed extrapolation. For example, comparability of target biology may be a relevant factor, either in extrapolating to other target species or for the same target onto another crop. For crops, factors such as comparable growth habit, structure etc. should be considered. TABLE FORMAT The main pest species for the crop group are listed in Column 1 (although this is not exhaustive), and the pest group to which they belong is specified in Column 2. Companies may choose if they wish to provide data only for individual named species, which would then appear individually listed on the label. But underlined species have been identified as key major targets and as such it is advisable to generate data on these. Furthermore, data on these species then allow a claim to be made for the whole pest group (as specified in Column 2), if required. -

Remarks on Brassica
International Journal of AgriScience Vol. 3(6): 453-480, June 2013 www.inacj.com ISSN: 2228-6322© International Academic Journals The wild and the grown – remarks on Brassica Hammer K.¹*, Gladis Th.¹ , Laghetti G.² , Pignone D.² ¹Former Institute of Crop Science, University of Kassel, Witzenhausen, Germany. * Author for correspondence (email: [email protected]) ²CNR – Institute of Plant Genetics, Bari, Italy. Received mmmm yyyy; accepted in revised form mmmmm yyyy ABSTRACT Brassica is a genus of the Cruciferae (Brassicaceae). The wild races are concentrated in the Mediterranean area with one species in CE Africa (Brassica somaliensis Hedge et A. Miller) and several weedy races reaching E Asia. Amphidiploid evolution is characteristic for the genus. The diploid species Brassica nigra (L.) Koch (n = 8), Brassica rapa L. emend. Metzg. (n = 10, syn.: B. campestris L.) and Brassica oleracea L. (n = 9) all show a rich variation under domestication. From the naturally occurring amphidiploids Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. (n = 18), Brassica napus L. emend. Metzg. (n = 19) and the rare Brassica carinata A. Braun (n = 17) also some vegetable races have developed. The man-made Brassica ×harmsiana O.E. Schulz (Brassica oleracea × Brassica rapa, n = 29, n = 39), or similar hybrids, serve also for the development of new vegetables. Brassica tournefortii Gouan (n = 10) from another Brassica- cytodeme, different from the Brassica rapa group, is occasionally grown as a vegetable in India. Brassica has developed two hotspots under cultivation, in the Mediterranean area and in E Asia. Cultivation by man has changed the different Brassica species in a characteristic way. The large amount of morphologic variation, which exceeded in many cases variations occurring in distinct wild species, has been observed by the classical botanists by adding these variations to their natural species by using Greek letters.
