- Observation Total leaf glucosinolate content varied among individuals, populations, and species.
- Observation Cardamine amara had two glucosinolate profile types.
- Observation C. pratensis had two glucosinolate profile types.
- Observation C. impatiens had three glucosinolate profile types.

- Observation Eidophasia messingiella larvae encounter diverse glucosinolate structures on cruciferous hosts.
- Observation Rhigognostis senilella larvae encounter diverse glucosinolate structures on cruciferous hosts.
