The level of homology suggests that comparison of these two species could reveal func- tional cis-regulatory elements. There is growing interest in comparing genome sequences to identify regulatory regions (Stojanovic et al., 1999).
We have previously shown that cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) is able to recombine with Nicotiana bigelovii plants that contain a CaMV transgene under conditions of strong selection pressure. We constructed transgenic N.

GENEVA, NY: Cornell University crucifer breeder Michael Dickson has transformed cauliflower from broccoli's pale cousin into a new orange variety that started appearing in supermarkets and farmers' markets last fall, and is available in garden catalogs this spring.
Broccoli and cauliflower both belong to the cabbage, or cole, family. Other commonly grown cole crops include brussels sprouts, collards, kale, kohlrabi and cabbage.
CAULIFLOWER This cool-season vegetable is a close relative of cabbage. However, cauliflower takes longer to develop and is not as cold hardy as cabbage and broccoli. Therefore, cauliflower often is considered more difficult to grow. It is also fairly intolerant of summer heat and drought.
