“…brassicae) (Fig. 3) and the turnip root fly (D. florales) are considered to be economically important pests on Brassica crops such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbages and kales, and are members of a large family of root flies (Klingen et al, 2002b and references therein; Ester et al, 2003). The larvae of Delia flies cause damage to plants by feeding on plant roots and through eggs and neonates (Klingen et al, 2002b).…”

-Brassica crops are grown worldwide for oil, food and feed purposes, and constitute a significant economic value due to their nutritional, medicinal, bioindustrial, biocontrol and crop rotation properties. Insect pests cause enormous yield and economic losses in Brassica crop production every year, and are a threat to global agriculture. In order to overcome these insect pests, Brassica species themselves use multiple defence mechanisms, which can be constitutive, inducible, induced, direct or indirect depending upon the insect or the degree of insect attack. Firstly, we give an overview of different Brassica species with the main focus on cultivated brassicas. Secondly, we describe insect pests that attack brassicas. Thirdly, we address multiple defence mechanisms, with the main focus on phytoalexins, sulphur, glucosinolates, the glucosinolate-myrosinase system and their breakdown products. In order to develop pest control strategies, it is important to study the chemical ecology, and insect behaviour. We review studies on oviposition regulation, multitrophic interactions involving feeding and host selection behaviour of parasitoids and predators of herbivores on brassicas. Regarding oviposition and trophic interactions, we outline insect oviposition behaviour, the importance of chemical stimulation, oviposition-deterring pheromones, glucosinolates, isothiocyanates, nitriles, and phytoalexins and their importance towards pest management. Finally, we review brassicas as cover and trap crops, and as biocontrol, biofumigant and biocidal agents against insects and pathogens. Again, we emphasise glucosinolates, their breakdown products, and plant volatile compounds as key components in these processes, which have been considered beneficial in the past and hold great prospects for the future with respect to an integrated pest management.Brassicas / insect pests / chemical ecology / trophic levels / glucosinolates / isothiocyanates / defence mechanisms / biocontrol / trap crops / integrated pest management

“…In addition, the high content of phenolic compounds may be important for the resistance of tronchuda cabbage seeds to downy mildew (Sousa, Dias, & Monteiro, 1997) and insect pests (Ester et al, 2003), as they are known to exert a protective role against parasite attack (Macheix, Fleuriet, & Billot, 1990). …”

“…These compounds have been considered as UV screens in young seedlings (Gitz, Liu, and McClure, 1998) and have been associated with seedling vigour, height and weight (Randhir and Shetty, 2003;Randhir and Shetty, 2005). Regarding B. oleracea seeds, previous studies with different varieties, other than costata, concerned its germination sensitivity to hypoxia (Finch-Savage, Cô me, Lynn, and Corbineau, 2005), the effect of its film-coating to control insect pests (Ester, Putter, and Bilsen, 2003), the determination of glucosinolates (Kaoulla, MacLeod, and Gil, 1980;MacLeod, MacLeod, and Reader, 1989;Rangkadilok et al, 2002aRangkadilok et al, , 2002, fatty acids (Ayaz et al, 2006) and sterols (Matsumoto, Shimizu, Asano, and Itoh, 1983).…”

Tronchuda cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. costata DC) seeds: Phytochemical characterization and antioxidant potential

et al. 2007

Tronchuda cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. costata DC) seeds were studied for their chemical composition and antioxidant capacity. Thirteen phenolic compounds were characterized and quantified by reversed-phase HPLC-DAD-MS/MS-ESI and HPLC-DAD, respectively: two sinapoylgentiobiose isomers, three sinapoylglucose isomers, kaempferol-3-(sinapoyl)sophorotrioside-7-glucoside, sinapoylcholine, kaempferol-3,7-diglucoside-4 0 -(sinapoyl)glucoside, three disinapoylgentiobiose isomers, 1,2,2 0 -trisinapoylgentiobiose and 1,2-disinapoylglucose. Seven organic acids (aconitic, citric, ascorbic, malic, quinic, shikimic and fumaric acids) were also identified and quantified by HPLC-UV. The aqueous extract of tronchuda cabbage seeds was investigated for its capacity to act as a scavenger of DPPH Å radical and reactive oxygen species (superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical and hypochlorous acid), exhibiting antioxidant capacity in a concentration-dependent manner against all radicals. These results may be attributed to the high content of hydroxycinnamic derivatives and ascorbic acid.

“…The intensified growing of cabbage has led to a common problem of high pest infestation, which is caused mostly by the Diamondback Moth (DBM) Plutella xylostella [12][13][14]. DBM larvae are very difficult pests to control [15] and therefore, are the greatest threat to crucifer production in many parts of the world.…”

This study aims to examine the insecticidal properties of the aerial part of Cymbopogon schoenanthus. Cabbage plants were sprayed with the aqueous extracts of C. schoenanthus leaves as treatment, and the damage levels of Plutella xylostella was assessed. In vitro, the emulsified essential oil concentrations were used in a contact test on the larvae in order to assess the mortality effects. The larvae survival time was only 22 seconds with C. schoenanthus emulsified oil treatment (2 g/l), whilst it exceeded 44,100 seconds (over 12 hours) for the dimethoate. The nutrition test showed that at 48 h period, a significant effectiveness against larvae was observed with emulsified oil treatment 2 g/l (60% mortality) versus 10% of mortality for dimethoate. Cymbopogon schoenanthus can validly be used as alternative in P. xylostella management. The results of the field experiments showed no significant difference between the treatments and the control in terms of marketable cabbages harvested.
