Argemone and Mustard Seeds
There is at present considerable agitation in the country over the adulteration of mustard oil with argemone oil. It has been fully realized that ingestion of mustard oil contaminated with argemone oil produces symptoms similar to those of epidemic dropsy. The experiments carried out in the field and the observations made by the various workers in this respect support the argemone contamination...
متن کاملRemoving the mustard oil bomb from seeds: transgenic ablation of myrosin cells in oilseed rape (Brassica napus) produces MINELESS seeds
Many plant phytochemicals constitute binary enzyme-glucoside systems and function in plant defence. In brassicas, the enzyme myrosinase is confined to specific myrosin cells that separate the enzyme from its substrate; the glucosinolates. The myrosinase-catalysed release of toxic and bioactive compounds such as isothiocyanates, upon activation or tissue damage, has been termed 'the mustard oil ...
متن کاملTranscriptome Analysis of a Female-sterile Mutant (fsm) in Chinese Cabbage (Brassica campestris ssp. pekinensis)
Female-sterile mutants are ideal materials for studying pistil development in plants. Here, we identified a female-sterile mutant fsm in Chinese cabbage. This mutant, which exhibited stable inheritance, was derived from Chinese cabbage DH line 'FT' using a combination of isolated microspore culture and ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis. Compared with the wild-type line 'FT,' the fsm plants exh...
متن کاملSequence of a Brassica campestris myrosinase gene.
Myrosinase (thioglucoside glucohydrolase, P-thioglucosidase, EC 3.2.3.1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucosinolates, a diverse group of sulfur-containing glycosides that are present in a11 the Cruciferae, to D-G~c, sulfur, and a variety of volatile compounds including thiocyanates, isothiocyanates, and nitriles (Fenwick et al., 1983). Normally, myrosinase and the glucosinolates are kept sequest...
متن کاملInduction of Hydrolytic Enzymes in Brassica campestris in Response to Pathovars of Xanthomonas campestris.
Inoculation of mature leaves of turnip (Brassica campestris) with the incompatible Xanthomonas campestris pv vitians resulted in the induction of beta-1,3-glucanase and chitinase/lysozyme (CHL) activity. No increase in the basal activity of beta-1,3-glucanase was observed after inoculation of leaves with heat- or rifampicin-killed X. c. vitians, Escherichia coli, or sterile water. Inoculation w...
