Abstract:
Watercress releases phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) upon wounding as a defence against herbivores. PEITC levels released from watercress farms are elevated due to cropping, washing, and processing and are thought to lead to adverse effects onGammarus pulexin chalk streams. This study elucidates the sublethal effect of PEITC on reproductive behaviour ofG. pulex, employingex situtests to investigate the disruption of precopular pairing under conditions simulatingin situexposure.

Abstract:
A well-developed root system is crucial for the rapid growth, asexual reproduction, and adaptation to the drought environments of the watercress. After analyzing the transcriptome of the watercress root system, we found that a high concentration of auxin is key to its adaptation to dry conditions. For the first time, we obtained DR5::EGFP watercress, which revealed the dynamic distribution of auxin in watercress root development under drought conditions. Via the application of naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), 4-biphenylboronic acid (BBO), ethylene (ETH), abscisic acid (ABA), and other factors, w

Abstract:
Based on the established efficient regeneration system for watercress in our laboratory, we optimized the processes of pretreatment, co-culture, and differentiation culture. Through GFP fluorescence and PCR identification, we successfully obtained transgenic watercress with the DR5 gene, which allowed us to investigate the distribution details of auxin in the growth process of watercress. Our findings provide an effective method for gene function research and lay the foundation for innovative utilization of germplasm resources of watercress.

Electron microscopic studies of leaf-dip preparations from symptomatic samples revealed flexuous viral particles 750 nm long. Infected cells contained pinwheel inclusions and scrolls typical of those associated with infection by a potyvirus. The virus was sap-transmitted back to watercress, which developed symptoms

Abstract:
Dietary intake of isothiocyanates (ITC) has been associated with reduced cancer risk. The dietary phenethyl ITC (PEITC) has previously been shown to decrease the phosphorylation of the translation regulator 4E binding protein 1 (4E-BP1). Decreased 4E-BP1 phosphorylation has been linked to the inhibition of cancer cell survival and decreased activity of the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), a key positive regulator of angiogenesis, and may therefore contribute to potential anti-cancer effects of PEITC. In the present study, we have investigated the in vitro and in vivo effect

Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer related mortality globally, and epidemiological studies suggest a link between healthy nutrition and cancer prevention. Members of the Brassicaceae family, including watercress, have been extensively studied for their anti-cancer and anti-genotoxic potential. Watercress has a complex phytonutrient profile characterised by high levels of carotenoids, flavonols and glucosinolates. Extracts of watercress exhibit strong antioxidant capacity in vitro.

As a result there is much interest in understanding the anticancer potential not only of cruciferous vegetables themselves but also of the key phytochemicals contained in them. This project focuses on the potential anticancer properties of watercress, a cruciferous vegetable which is cultivated around the world and eaten raw as a salad vegetable as well as in cooked dishes.

Scholarly works on agricultural and food history, on cultural geography and on landscape have long informed and enriched geographical thinking. However few researchers have drawn from these extensive bodies of work in order to investigate the cultural landscapes of food. This thesis aims to address that. It proposes the notion that foods can and do have cultural landscapes; landscapes that exhibit temporal changes which reflect changes occurring in the wider society. It goes on to investigate this notion through an historical case study of one particular food: watercress. Watercress itself has

Laboratory results indicated that zinc acts by actively lysing zoospores of S. subterranea, but does not cause 100% mortality at field concentrations. At 8ug ml", around 20 % of zoospores were seen to survive compared to controls. Of other cations investigated as potential control agents, none were as effective as zinc at equival
