  • Brassica Rapa Domestication: Untangling Wild and Feral Forms and Convergence of Crop Morphotypes Alex C

It is made available under aCC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license. 1 Brassica rapa domestication: untangling wild and feral forms and convergence of crop morphotypes Alex C. McAlvay, Aaron P. Ragsdale, Makenzie E. Mabry, Xinshuai Qi, Kevin A. Bird, Pablo Velasco, Hong An, J. Chris Pires, Eve Emshwiller Abstract The study of domestication contributes to our knowledge of evolution and crop genetic resources. Human selection has shaped wild Brassica rapa into diverse turnip, leafy, and oilseed crops. Despite its worldwide economic importance and potential as a model for understanding diversification under domestication, insights into the number of domestication events and initial crop(s) domesticated in B. rapa have been limited due to a lack of clarity about the wild or feral status of conspecific non-crop relatives. To address this gap and reconstruct the domestication history of B. rapa, we analyzed 68,468 genotyping-by-sequencing-derived SNPs for 416 samples in the largest diversity panel of domesticated and weedy B. rapa to date. To further understand the center of origin, we modeled the potential range of wild B. rapa during the mid-Holocene. Our analyses of genetic diversity across B. rapa morphotypes suggest that non-crop samples from the Caucasus, Siberia, and Italy may be truly wild, while those occurring in the Americas and much of Europe are feral.

    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.

  • Rapini and Pecorino Crostoni
    DOMENICA COOKS Crostoni with Spicy Rapini and Shaved Pecorino Served as an antipasto in Umbria, Tuscany, and elsewhere in Italy, crostoni (large crostini) are traditionally topped with such savory delights as sautéed chicken livers, porcini, or anchovy and butter. Here’s one of my favorite combinations, featuring bitter greens and piquant cheese. Makes 6 servings INGREDIENTS 3 cloves garlic, sliced paper-thin 1/4 cup (60 ml) extra-virgin olive oil 1 small fresh or dried chili pepper, minced, or a generous pinch of crushed red pepper 1 pound (455 g) rapini (broccoli rabe, tough stems removed, leaves and tender stems chopped Fine salt 12 slices Italian bread (half-slices if large), broiled, grilled or toasted 1/2 cup (60 g) shaved pecorino cheese INSTRUCTIONS 1. Place the garlic and olive oil in a large frying pan and set over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until softened but not browned, about 7 minutes. Sprinkle in the chili pepper. Add the rapini by the handful and, using tongs, toss to coat with the oil. 2. Cover and cook until the greens are just wilted, about 1 minute. Uncover, toss once more, recover, and cook at a gentle simmer until the greens are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt. Raise the heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes longer. Remove from the heat and let cool briefly. Transfer to a cutting board and chop finely. 3. Spoon the filling onto the crostoni and top with the pecorino shavings.

W.D.J. Koch, Brassica campestris L. ssp. rapifera (Metzger) Sinsk., Brassica campestris L. var. rapa (L.) Hartm., Brassica napus var. quadrivalvis (Hook. f. & Thomson) O. E. Schulz, Brassica quadrivalvis Hook. f. & Thomson, Caulanthus sulfureus Payson Description General: Field mustard is an upright winter annual or biennial that is a member of the mustard family (Brassicaceae). Plants exist as basal rosettes until flowering stems develop at maturity, usually in the second year. Plants grow 1 to 3 (or 4) ft tall from a sometimes fleshy, enlarged taproot, with a many-branched stem. The foliage is generally hairless and sometimes covered with a whitish film. Lower leaves can reach 12 inches long, have a large central lobe, and usually one to four pairs of smaller side lobes. Upper leaves are smaller, non-lobed, and have a pointed tip and widened, clasping base. The bright yellow Photo by George W. Williams, 2011, courtesy of Wildflowers in Santa flowers are clustered at stem tops and have four petals that are ¼ Barbara at http://sbwildflowers.wordpress.com. to ½ inch long. Plants flower from January to September, depending on climate and latitude, and are insect pollinated and self-incompatible.

The US has arguably the highest fracture rate in the world, though in the land of plenty it is difficult to think that this could be due to dietary deficiency. Sales of supplements to prevent and treat osteoporosis such as calcium and more recently vitamin D, as standard recommendations of Western physicians, hovers near 1 billion dollars and very clearly is not stemming the tide of rising fracture rates. This investigation sets out to understand why, and to create a new dietary protocol to address the growing financial and emotional burden of osteoporotic fracture.
