The occurrence of series of indole glucosinolates in callus cultures of Brassica napus var. napobrassica L. and B. oleracea var. botrotys L. was demonstrated by GC of trimethylsilyl derivatives. Neither callus nor suspension cultures of Hirschfeldia incana L. accumulated any of the glucosinolates present in the mature plant; however, feeding of 2‐propenyl glucosinolate to suspensions of the latter was shown to lead to production of the isothiocyanate.
