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.

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 this research, synthetic bathing water was created treated by coagulation and mechanical filtration. The waters were qualified before and after treatment, so that the effectiveness of the treatment could be calculated. The greywater produced during the treatment was circulated in a hydroponic tower next to a tapwater control tower. The watercress grown was analyzed in the towers and their results were compared. The results show that the greywater treatment was effective and the watercresses were comfortable in the synthetic bathing water tower without nutrient solution. They grew larger tha

The bacterial content of irrigation water, agricultural soil, and ready-to-eat vegetables gathered from farmlands was evaluated. Watercress (Eruca sativa) and lettuce (Lactuca sativa) were selected since they are major ready-to-eat vegetables in most Egyptian households and restaurants.

In Brazil, watercress is grown mainly by very small farmers. The crop is primarily seed propagated and growers can harvest several times per year in an established planting. Very few diseases have been reported in this crop worldwide. In Brazil, watercress infection by Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) (3), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) (1), and an unidentified potyvirus (2) were previously reported. In January 2009, 80% of watercr

Chemopreventatives are chemical compounds that reduce or prevent diseases such as cancer. Watercress (Nasturtium officinale) contains phenylethyl glucosinolate that, on hydrolysis, yields PEITC, and PEITC is one of the most-important anti-carcinogens among the cruciferous chemopreventatives tested. Watercress was grown in closed hydroponic systems containing 200 ppm nitrogen and either 64, 128, and 192 ppm sulfur to yield N:S ratios of 1:0.3, 1:0.6, and 1:0.9. T
