Nutrition Health Review, Summer, 2003

Seminis, the world's largest developer, grower, and marketer of vegetable and fruit seeds, has secured exclusive marketing rights to broccoli that contains as much as 80 times more potential cancer-fighting ability than standard broccoli. The broccoli was developed by means of a traditional plant-breeding program.

According to Seminis, company researchers are currently cross-breeding the broccoli plants that have high levels of glucosinates (a naturally occurring cancer-fighter) with commercial varieties adapted to important production areas.
