What is Glucosinolate-Myrosinase Defense System about?

This review discusses the glucosinolate–myrosinase system in Brassicales plants, which serves as a chemical defense mechanism against herbivores and pathogens. The system involves the hydrolysis of glucosinolates by myrosinases to produce toxic compounds, known as the mustard oil bomb, that deter pests. The document summarizes current knowledge, highlights progress in understanding this defense system, and outlines future research challenges.
