Purple head broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Plenck), a functional food crop for antioxidant and anticancer potential
TLDR
This study provides the scientific basis for the use of broccoli as easily affordable potent functional food and explores these extracts for antiproliferative potential by morphological changes, cell cycle analysis, measurement of intracellular peroxides and mitochondrial membrane potential changes.
Influence of a Selenium Biofortification on Antioxidant Properties and Phenolic Compounds of Apples (Malus domestica)
TLDR
It was shown that the biofortification, which was performed as a foliar application implemented in usual calcium fertilization, led to significantly increased selenium contents in the fruits.

Cultivation conditions and selenium fertilization alter the phenolic profile, glucosinolate, and sulforaphane content of broccoli.
TLDR
It is shown that selection for one bioactive component (Se) may decrease the content of other bioactive components such as phenolics and glucosinolates in broccoli, and that not all broccoli may contain all health-promotingBioactive components.
