© 2019, The Author(s). Aim: Magnesium (Mg) deficiency (known as grass tetany) is a serious metabolic disorder that affects grazing ruminants. We tested whether Mg-fertiliser can increase Mg concentration of Italian ryegrasses (Lolium multiflorum L.)...

Overexpression of the MYB29 transcription factor affects aliphatic glucosinolate synthesis in Brassica oleracea (2019)
Journal Article
Zuluaga, D. L., Graham, N. S., Klinder, A., van Ommen Kloeke, A. E., Marcotrigiano, A. R., Wagstaff, C., …Aarts, M. G. (2019). Overexpression of the MYB29 transcription factor affects aliphatic glucosinolate synthesis in Brassica oleracea. Plant Molecular Biology, 101(1-2), 65–79. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11103-019-00890-2

Isothiocyanates, the bio-active hydrolysis products of glucosinolates, naturally produced by several Brassicaceae species, play an important role in human health and agriculture. This study aims at correlating the content of aliphatic glucosinolates...
