Abstract
The genus Brassica of Brassicaceae family as a whole is believed to have originated around the Mediterranean, Eastern Afghanistan and the adjoining portion of Pakistan and North-Eastern Africa (Hemingway, 1976). The genus includes six economically important species, namely, Brassica rapa, B. oleracea, B. nigra, B. juncea, B. napus, and B. carinata (Doweny and Robbelen, 1989). Ethiopian mustard is believed to be originated in the highlands of the Ethiopian plateau and the adjoining portion of East Africa and the Mediterranean coast (Gomez-Campo and Prakash, 1999).It evolved as a natural cross between B. nigra (BB) (n=8) and B. oleracea (CC) (n=9) and underwent further chromosomal doubling (2n=34; UN, 1935). It is partially amphidiploids.
