Distribution: The most important growing areas lie in mid and West Europe, North America, more rarely in tropical areas, East and West Africa. Most robust cabbage type.
Plant Exploration in North Carolina to Collect Collard and Other Brassica Oleracea L. Germplasm for Crop Improvement (407043)The project is designed to acquire and conserve Brassica oleraceae L. germplasm not currently available in the National Plant Germplasm System or other germplasm collections.
Varieties Certified: Varieties and classes eligible for planting may be found in the OSCS Handbook. Field History: Land must not have grown or been seeded to any cruciferous crops during the previous five years.
Information on planting, fertilizing and pruning these trees, protection from pests, diseases, harvesting, storing and cracking the nuts. The information on cultivars is particularly relevant to Kentucky.
This work seeks to protect crops from insect pests by combining approaches from biological control and biotechnology. More specifically, it aims to protect cabbage from diamondback moths (DBM) through use of a collard trap crop expressing insect-resistance genes from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt).
