Introduction

The genus Brassica

The Brassica genome has undergone more polyploidy than Arabidopsis thaliana.

Duplication Events

The Brassica genome has undergone two hexaploidy and two tetraploidy events since the ancestor of all known edicots.

UGT Gene Family

UGT functions

Uridine diphosphate (UDP) glycosyltransferases (UGTs) mediate transfer of glycosyl residues from activated nucleotide sugars to acceptor molecules (Higher plant glycosyltransferases).
