Available Online: https://sciforum.net/conference/ecsoc-22. Published: 14 November 2018 Abstract: Medicinal plants are in rich source of antimicrobial agents. The present study was carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of plants from the same species as Brassica oleceracea namely, white cabbage and red cabbage. The preliminary phytochemical analysis was tested by using a different extract of these plants for the presence of various secondary metabolites like alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, terpenoids, glycosides, steroids, carbohydrates, and amino acids. The in vitro antimicrobial activity was screened against clinical isolates viz gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Extracts found significant inhibition against all the pathogens. Keywords: plant extract; phytochemicals; antibacterial activity; antifungal activity 1. Introduction Despite great progress in the development of medicines, infectious diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites are still a major threat to public health. The impact is mainly observed in developing countries due to relative unavailability of medicines and the emergence of widespread drug resistance [1].

Ornamental Cabbage and Kale, Brassica Oleracea in the Fall, Chyrsanthemums and Pansies Are the Predominant Plants Offered for Seasonal Color
A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 3 Sept 2007 Ornamental Cabbage and Kale, Brassica oleracea In the fall, chyrsanthemums and pansies are the predominant plants offered for seasonal color. But another group of cold-tolerant plants without fl owers can help brighten the fall garden when almost ev- erything else is looking tired and ready for winter. Ornamental cabbage and kale are the same species as edible cabbages, broccoli, and caulifl ower (Bras- sica oleracea) but have much fancier and more col- orful foliage than their cousins from the vegetable garden. While these plants are sometimes offered as “fl owering” cabbage and kale, they are grown for their large rosettes of colorful leaves, not the fl owers. These plants are very showy and come in a variety of colors, ranging from white to pinks, purples or reds. Even though they are technically all kales (kale does not produce a head; instead, it produces leaves in a tight rosette), by convention those types with deeply- cut, curly, frilly or ruffl ed leaves are called ornamen- Ornamental kale makes a dramatic massed planting. tal kale, while the ones with broad, fl at leaves often edged in a contrasting color are called ornamental cabbage. The plants grow about a foot wide and 15” tall. Ornamental cabbages and kales do not tolerate summer heat, and plants set out in spring will likely have bolted or declined in appearance, so it is necessary to either start from seed in mid-summer or purchase trans- plants for a good fall show.

How to Grow Cabbage (Brassica Oleracea) Cabbage Varieties Come in a Spectrum of Colors, from Light Green to Dark Purple
How to Grow Cabbage (Brassica oleracea) Cabbage varieties come in a spectrum of colors, from light green to dark purple. The scientific name of cabbage is Brassica oleracea, a species that also includes broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and Brussels sprouts. Time of Planting: Sow cabbage seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting seedlings outdoors. Transplant cabbage seedlings outdoors just before the last frost. Spacing Requirements: Sow seeds ¼ inch deep. Space cabbages at least 24-36 inches apart in even spacing or 12-14 inches apart in rows spaced 36-44 inches apart. Time to Germination: 7-12 days. Special Considerations: When growing for seed, increase spacing to 18-24 inches apart in rows that are at least 36 inches apart. Staking is recommended. Common Pests and Diseases (and how to manage): Cabbage can suffer from a number of pests and diseases including flea beetles, cabbage moths, aphids, leaf miner bugs, slugs, and black rot. Early season insect pests, such as flea beetles, can be deterred by growing transplants underneath row cover. Harvest (when and how): Cut the head at the base of the plant with a harvesting knife or pruning shears as soon as the cabbage head feels solid. Trim off the loose outer leaves and store heads in a cool place. Eating: Raw cabbage can be used in fresh salads like coleslaw. It can also be enjoyed roasted, braised, stewed, and stir fried. Cabbage is often fermented to make sauerkraut and kimchi. Storing: Cabbage will keep for about four months at a temperature between 32-40 degrees F and a relative humidity of 80-90%.

Cabbage History Cabbage Began As a Wild Plant in Europe and the Mediterranean Along Bodies of Water
Cabbage History Cabbage began as a wild plant in Europe and the Mediterranean along bodies of water. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks had great respect for cabbage, as they thought it had medicinal qualities. The Greeks began cultivating cabbage as early as 600 B.C., and the Romans began growing it too. Later, it was introduced to the British Isles. Because cabbage is fairly easy to grow and can adapt to various conditions, it is grown around the world today. China is the leading producer and consumer of cabbage. Cabbage prefers a cool, mild temperature. Too much exposure to cold or hot temperatures will cause the seeds to grow into flowers instead of leafy heads. The head is ready for harvest when it is firm, typically after 2-3 months. Pick it by hand and store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Cabbage is a low-calorie food with an excellent amount of vitamin K, which helps regulate blood and its flow. Varieties Cannonball cabbage is called a “mammoth Brussels sprout” because they only grow to be one foot wide. The leaves are dense and used for shredding into sauerkraut or coleslaw. January King cabbage has curly blue-green leaves with splashes of purple. It can be planted in the fall and harvested into the winter. It only grows to be one pound per head. Napa cabbage is oblong with frilled yellow-green leaves. It is softer and sweeter than most cabbage. Red Drumhead cabbage is a tough, red cabbage that is usually shredded for salads. Savoy cabbage has yellow to green leaves and a mildly earthy taste.

Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Cabbage
Crop Fact Sheet series Excerpted from The Southwest Regional Climate Hub and California Subsidiary Hub Assessment of Climate Change Vulnerability and Adaptation and Mitigation Strategies (July 2015) This report describes the potential vulnerability of specialty crops, field crops, forests, and animal agriculture to climate- driven environmental changes. In the report vulnerability is defined as a function of exposure to climate change effects, sensitivity to these effects, and adaptive capacity. The exposure of specific sectors of the agricultural and forestry industries varies across the region because the Southwest is climatically and topographically diverse. The purpose of this analysis is to describe regional vulnerabilities to climate change and adaptive actions that can be employed to maintain productivity of working lands in the coming decades The report can be accessed here: http://swclimatehub.info/files/Southwest-California-Vulnerability-Assessment.pdf Broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage Brassica oleracea (Brassicaceae) The versatile species Brassica oleracea includes more than a half-dozen different crops, of which the three most important in the U.S. are broccoli, cauliflower, and head cabbage. Collectively, they are termed cole crops. California produces about 90% of the nation’s broccoli and cauliflower [2], while cabbage production is more widely distributed; California and Arizona together account for only 29% [3] (Figure 1). Broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage are cool-season crops. They are grown in many locations around the Southwest, including California’s central and southern coast, inland deserts, and Western Arizona. In the southern parts of this range, they are Photo: USDA NRCS planted as winter crops, while in the northern parts, they are grown and harvested year-round.
