Part of the book series: Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry ((AGRICULTURE,volume 19))

Abstract

Horseradish [Cochlearia armoracia L., Armoracia rusticana (Gaerth)] belongs to the Cruciferae family, and is the most commonly cultivated species of this genus. It was originally grown in southeastern Europe and western Asia. In the Asian part of the USSR, in Siberia, and the Far East, a wild species of horseradish, Armoracia sisimbrioides D.S., is found. Horseradish was first mentioned in a historical commentary from the 12th century.
