“…Defense metabolites including glucosinolates (GSLs), have frequently been linked to resistance to B. cinerea and other generalist necrotrophic pathogens within the Brassicas ( Stotz et al, 2011 ; Buxdorf et al, 2013 ; Cargnel et al, 2014 ; Calmes et al, 2015 ). GSLs are sulfur containing secondary metabolites unique to the order Capparales whose genetics and chemistry have been extensively studied ( Chan et al, 2010 ; Sønderby et al, 2010 ; Kliebenstein, 2014 ). In addition to necrotrophic resistance, these compounds also alter resistance to biotrophic pathogens, insects and aphids indicating that they are likely key players in numerous biotic interactions of Brassica plants ( Kroymann and Mitchell-Olds, 2005 ; Pfalz et al, 2007 , 2009 ; Fan et al, 2011 ; Weis et al, 2014 ; Kerwin et al, 2015 ).…”
