Hakuran (white and indigo) - Hakuran (English spelling) "Brassica napus" (synthetic)
A biennial plant of the Brassicaceae family. A new vegetable created in Japan by interspecific hybridization between Chinese cabbage and cabbage, named after the "Haku" (Chinese cabbage) and "Ran" (Chinese cabbage). Chinese cabbage has 20 chromosomes in its somatic cells (diploid), while cabbage has 18, and the chromosome sets are named the A and C genomes. It was created by breeding a tetraploid plant with 38 somatic chromosomes (genome structure AACC ) from a cross between tetraploids that doubled the chromosome number of these two species.
