Sumario:Many years ago, the first Brassica species were propagated. There are several methods that can be used to grow Brassica plants, such as intergeneric hybridization, microscope cultivation, anther cultivation, CRISPR/Cas4 Technology and the phylogenetic analysis of Brassica genomes. The plants that have evolved from Brassica species are many, and these include Savoy cabbage, broccoli, mustard greens, Japanese mustard, horseradish, as well as kale. Although the main supplier of Brassica vegetables is China, these species have diverged and emerged to several other countries like Cyprus, Europe, Levant, Greece and the British Isles. Ogura cytoplasm introgression is a technique that has highlighted the differences in floral traits in species of Brassica plants. In cauliflower plants, pre-floral meristem division is a factor that’s often investigated, as divisions of this plant part demonstrates plant growth and mobility. This perspective chapter will address all aspects pertaining to the genus Brassica, and it will provide an account of key characteristics and functions ascribed to Brassica plants.
