Glucosinolates in rutabaga grown in soil capped over coal fly ash
1990
Anderson, J.L. | Lisk, D.J. | Stoewsand, G.S.
Nine glucosinolates were measured by HPLC analysis in rutabaga grown on soil capped over a coal fly ash landfill or on normal clay and silt loam soil. Progoitrin (2-hydroxybut-3-enyl glucosinolate) and neoglucobrassicin (1-methoxy-3-indolylmethyl glucosinolate) were the most abundant glucosinolates found. Progoitrin and three other minor glucosinolates were present in the natural soil-grown rutabaga in greater amounts than in that grown in fly-ash soil. However, fly ash grown rutabaga contained comparatively greater levels of glucobrassicin (3-indolylmethyl glucosinolate) and neoglucobrassicin, the major glucosinolate present.
