Talk:Brassica rapa

Wisconsin fast-plant
The "Wisconsin fast-plant" name and related materials are another subject, and perhaps belong in a separate article. This is an important genus of crop plants, and the article should reflect this. SB Johnny 18:47, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Brassica as a plant family or genus
I heard that all species of Brassica are capable of producing hybrids. Just try growing them next to each other, and there's bound to be some crossing of the genes.

So, I was wondering, is that true? When is it safe to grow two species of Brassica next to each other, and not have them trade genes with each other? Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 03:10, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Rapa
What is the name Brassica Rapa, whose root is eaten, but it is not turnips? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.215.98.3 (talk) 19:30, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Canola
The following comment was originally posted on the article page by user:150.148.14.153 (diff). ---Sluzzelin talk  22:52, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Page contains errors. UPDATE: Canola is the trade name for rapeseed varieties known as 00, meaning they are low in eruic acid and glucosinolates. It can include Brassica napus, B. rapa (aka B. campestris), and B. juncea. Conventional rape with high erucic acid and high or low glucosinolates (sometimes called HEAR or LEAR for High/Low Erucic Acid Rapeseed), also includes B. napus, B. rapa (aka B. campestris), and B. juncea. In Europe the name, "Canola" is not used, it is simply referred to as Rapeseed, Rapeseed meal, and Rapeseed oil.
