Microgreens belong to a class of functional foods with valuable nutritional elements and diverse health benefits when consumed as food supplements. Its consumption has increased sharply due the abundance different health-promoting components than their mature plants. The present study investigated growth conditions profiles six crops (mungbean, lentil, red radish, pearl-millet, mustard, cabbage...

Paucity of knowledge on resistant variety, high yield loss ranging from 32- 57% and dearth management Alternaria leaf spot has been the major concerns in radish production world. Our study will aid multiplication standardization germane variety to disease so as escalate production, productivity, competitiveness domestic well international market. Hence, this experiment was rendered screen genot...

Wounding of fresh produce may elicit an increase in antioxidant capacity associated with wound-induced phenolic compounds. However, there have been no reports on the wounding response of different types of fresh produce. Changes in antioxidant capacity, total soluble phenolics, ascorbic acid, total carotenoids and total anthocyanins were evaluated after wounding in zucchini, white and red cabba...

The potential toxicity and accumulation of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) in agricultural crops has become an area of great concern and intense investigation. Interestingly, although below-ground vegetables are most likely to accumulate the highest concentrations of ENMs, little work has been done investigating the potential uptake and accumulation of ENMs for this plant group. The overall obj...

The MADS-box gene family is an important transcription factor (TF) family that is involved in various aspects of plant growth and development, especially flowering time and floral organogenesis. Although it has been reported in many plant species, the systematic identification and characterization of MADS-box TF family is still limited in radish (Raphanus sativus L.). In the present study, a co...

To understand the molecular mechanism underlying salt stress response in radish, iTRAQ-based proteomic analysis was conducted to investigate the differences in protein species abundance under different salt treatments. In total, 851, 706, and 685 differential abundance protein species (DAPS) were identified between CK vs. Na100, CK vs. Na200, and Na100 vs. Na200, respectively. Functional annota...

Three growth inhibitors which might be involved in phototropism of Sakurajima radish (Raphanus sativus var. hortensis f. gigantissimus Makino) hypocotyls, were isolated as crystalline forms from light-exposed radish seedlings and identified as cis- and trans-raphanusanins and 6-methoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,3-oxazepin-2-one (designated raphanusamide). The cis- and trans-raphanusanins inhibited g...

Alkyl esters of hydroxycinnamic acids and vanillin derivatives were used as model compounds in the oxidative coupling reactions catalyzed by a crude enzymatic extract Raphanus sativus var (red radish). Six products isolated characterized: three alkyl dimers vanilloids dimers. Herein, we report var. showed peroxidase activity catalyzing phenols. Vanilloid coupled an ortho-ortho way expected, whi...

Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) is the first step key enzyme of flavonoid biosynthesis pathway which played an essential role in plant anthocyanin accumulation. Five PAL family gene members were identified radish ( Raphanus sativus  L.) genome name RsPAL1~5. Specific primers designed to amplify open reading frame red ‘Hongxin No.1’ and then sequenced. Real-time PCR was used a...
