  • plants with high levels of anticarcinogenic glucosinolates
    Patent number: 8921644
    Abstract: A method is for providing plants belonging to the Brassicaceae family with elevated levels of anticarcinogenic glucosinolates. The plants are obtained by 1) the production of a Brassica oleracea plant with elevated levels of anticarcinogenic glucosinolates in the edible parts and 2) the use of the Brassica oleracea plant produced under 1) as a starting material for breeding Brassica varieties with elevated levels of anticarcinogenic glucosinolates.

  • plants with a resistance to
    Patent number: 8492615
    Abstract: On embodiment of the present invention discloses Brassica oleracea plants with a resistance gene to Mycosphaerella brassicicola. An embodiment of the invention also discloses a method for providing a Brassica oleracea plant with a resistance to Mycosphaerella brassicicola, including providing a first B. oleracea plant, which plant includes a resistance gene to M. brassicicola; crossing the resistant plant with a susceptible second B. oleracea plant; isolating from the progeny genomic DNA for detecting the presence of an introgression with the resistance gene using one or more specific DNA markers linked to the resistance gene; and selecting from the progeny a B. oleracea plant in which the presence of the introgression with the resistance gene has been demonstrated.

  • Method for improving the forming of flowers of a garlic plant
    Patent number: 6308456
    Abstract: A garlic plant (Allium sativum L.) provided with an agent containing a hormone for improving the forming of flowers, at least substantially without bulbils, which has been added thereto in vivo prior to the forming of flowers, which hormone is selected from the group of gibberellins, preferably gibberellic acid type GA3. The agent containing the hormone is for example injected into the flower stalk of the garlic plant.
