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

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.

  • Chinese Vegetable Identification
    “Cabbage” by any other name… Basic Information to Help Identify Chinese Greens NJ Department of Environmental Protection Pesticide Control Program Pesticide Evaluation and Monitoring “Different vegetables are often called the same name, the same vegetable is called by several names, and botanists are still arguing about which is correct!” (Joy Larkcom, author of Oriental Vegetables: The Complete Guide for the Gardening Cook). This is one author’s description of the confusion behind the identification and classification of many of the Chinese vegetables, specifically the Chinese “leafy greens”. The Chinese “leafy greens” are part of the Brassicaceae (Mustard) family and are quite common in New Jersey. Many of these greens are cool season crops which allows New Jersey growers to increase their early springtime yield, when planted along with crops like asparagus and lettuce. The greens that are part of the Chinese mustard family can be headed, loose-headed, leafy or flowering. Supermarkets are likely to package and sell only the edible portion of the plant, while you are more likely to find the entire plant available at roadside markets or farm markets. These different marketing approaches and the similarities of many of the Chinese leafy greens often makes it difficult to find exactly what you are looking for. Chinese cabbage is the Chinese mustard most often found in New Jersey and is also commonly known as napa cabbage or wong bok. Considered a headed mustard, this type of cabbage is more barrel shaped, with tight, overlapping leaves. The color of the outer leaves can vary greatly from a very dark green to a delicate pale green.

  • Adoption of Horticultural Innovations to Small-Scale Vegetable Farmers in Cambodia: Connecting to What I Have Learned in IAD
    Adoption of Horticultural Innovations to Small-scale Vegetable Farmers in Cambodia: Connecting to What I have Learned in IAD A capstone project submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in International Agricultural Development University of California, Davis Spring Quarter, 2019 Thort Chuong M.S., Candidate, International Agricultural Development University of California, Davis Executive Summary The purpose of this paper is to conduct a 5-year post-project assessment of small-scale vegetable farmers’ adoption of net-house horticultural innovations in Cambodia using saving groups as the platform to introduce the technology. This paper summarizes our initial approaches to organizing horticultural technology fairs for farmers and other project stakeholders. Archived project documents and interviews with farmers conducted during different phases of the project were used to assess the project’s successes. Land Used System (LUS) analysis was used to predict the economic performance of the net-house system compared with the conventional system. The results of the farmer interviews and LUS analysis suggest that net-house technology is perceived as an effective environmentally friendly alternative to pesticides used in regions with high pest pressure. Additional benefits were a high economic return and the health benefits associated with reductions in pesticides. The wider adoption and spread of information about the net-house technology continues to expand within and to additional regions in Cambodia.

  • Origins and Diversity of Brassica and Its Relatives
    1 ORIGINS AND DIVERSITY OF BRASSICA AND ITS RELATIVES Understanding the brassica1 vegetables involves a fascinating, biological journey through evolutionary time, witnessing wild plant populations interbreeding and forming stable hybrids. Mankind took both the wild parents and their hybrid progeny, refined them by selection and further combination, and produced over biblical time crops that are, together with the cereals, the mainstay of world food supplies. Genetic diversity and flexibility are characteristic features of all members of the family Brassicaceae (previously the Cruciferae). Possibly, these traits encouraged their domestication by Neolithic man. Records show that the Ancient Greeks, Romans, Indians and Chinese all valued and used them greatly. The etymology of Brassica has been contested since Herman Boerhaave suggested in 1727 that it might come from the Greek ␣πo␶o␷␤␳␣␰⑀␫-␷, Latin vorare (‘to devour’) (Henslow, 1908). An alternative derivation from Bresic or Bresych, the Celtic name for cabbage, was suggested by Hegi (1919). This is a contraction of praesecare (‘to cut off early’), since the leaves were harvested for autumn and early winter food and fodder. Another suggested origin is from the Greek ␤-␳␣o␴⑀␫␷, crackle, coming from the sound made when the leaves are detached from the stem (Gates, 1953). A further suggestion is a Latin derivation from ‘to cut off the head’ and was first recorded in a comedy of Plautus in the 3rd century BC. Aristotle (384–322 BC), Theophrastus (371–286 BC), Cato (234–149 BC), Columella (1st century AD) and Pliny (23–79 AD) all mention the importance of brassicas. Further eastwards, the ancient Sanskrit literature Upanishads and Brahamanas, originating around 1500 BC, mention brassicas, and the Chinese Shih Ching, possibly edited by Confucius (551–479 BC), refers to the turnip (Keng, 1974; Prakash and Hinata, 1980).
