Enhanced Response of Plants to Previous Herbivory by Means of Classical Breeding Methods. Since plants within the same species may differ in their ability to produce and concentrate phytoalexins in response to stimuli, the idea is to identify such plants and use their regulating genes in classical breeding programs.

To exploit additional market opportunities or to improve oil characteristics, traditional plant breeding methods have been used to create oils with modified fatty acid profiles. 

Conventional breeding has developed oilseed rape (Brassica napus) cultivars that can accumulate long-chain fatty acids such as C20 1 and C22 l, however the ability to accumulate short-chain fatty acids is limited. Similarly the ability to accumulate industrially useful hydroxy fatty acids and epoxy fatty acids is also limited with conventional breeding methods. Due to its close relationship to the crucifer Arabidopsis and its associated characterised genome, and the relative ease with which genes can be inserted into Brassica species, oilseed rape is seen as a key target species for genetic manipulation.

However, ideal levels of crop selectivity are difficult to achieve. Several approaches to supplement natural crop selectivity have been used, including development of chemical safeners that improve herbicide tolerance of corn and sorghum (2), restriction of herbicide use to tolerant cultivars (3), transfer of tolerance to crop cultivars by breeding methods (4), and optimization of the site, timing, and method of herbicide application.
