Ecological concern exists about transmission of pollen from some types of plant, such as the Brassicas and tree crops, either into weedy relatives or into crops grown at some distance. This problem is not limited to transgenic plants. Canola, a rape-seed cultivar bred to produce low glucosinolates and low erucic acid, must be planted in isolation from industrial rapeseed, as each crop will result in seed with altered composition from the ideal that is, excessive erucic acid in the canola and less erucic acid in the industrial rapeseed. Because the products of industrial crops are not intended for consumption, and may even be noxious, risk management and containment, including the prevention of intercrop cross-pollination, is...

Progoitrin, ((/J)-2-hydroxy-3-butenyl glucosinolate), occurs in rape Brassica napus) and other Brassica species. The (5)-epimer epiprogoitrin, potassium salt amorphous solid, [a]o -14.8° (H2O), is the main glucosinolate in the seeds of sea kale. Crambe spp.), e. g., C. maritima (white sea kale) and C. hispanica (Spanish sea kale). - Glucosinalbin (4-hydroxybenzyl glucosinolate) occurs in Brassica seeds. The salt with...
