Five cultivars of Eruca sativa and a commercial variety of Diplotaxis tenuifolia were grown in the UK (summer) and subjected to commercial growth, harvesting and processing, with subsequent shelf life storage. Glucosinolates (GSL), isothiocyanates (ITC), amino acids (AA), free sugars, and bacterial loads were analysed throughout the supply chain to determine the effects on phytochemical composi...

Eruca sativa is an important crop as medicinally as well as for salad purpose. It belongs to family Bracicaceae and being used as genetic resource to improve the other species of Brassica. The seedlings developed from treated seeds with sodium azide at concentration ranged (1x 10 to 5x10 M) showed wide -3 -3 variation in plant growth (plant height, leaf area, fresh and dry weight) upto 60 days ...

Eruca sa t i v a is a very important crop of Madeterranean region, and highly used as salad 3 in European countries . Sodium azide (NaN ) is a chemic a l mutagen, and widely used in crops to 3 improve their yield and quality traits . W e s tudied the effect of various concentrations of NaN ranged (1mM , 2mM , 3 mM, 4 mM and 5 mM) on germination and seedling growth of Eruca at various time 3 int...

A six year field study was conducted from 2001–2002 to 2006–2007 at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India to study the losses in seed yield of different Brassica species (B. juncea, B. napus, B. carinata, B. rapa and Eruca sativa) by the infestation of insect pests. The experiment was conducted in two different sets viz. protected/sprayed and unprotected, in a randomized block design,...

The diversity of the floral characters in 25 species Brassicaceae representing seven tribes was studied through tracing their organs vascularization. aim present study is to explore contribution micro-floral understanding relationships among as well evolutionary trends calyx, corolla, androecium and gynoecium. It concluded that vascularization sepals, petals, stamens, nectaries carpels consider...
