A further possible strategy for the production of healthy compounds, such as glucosinolates and phenolic compounds in turnip, could be represented by infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes to obtain transgenic hairy root cultures . For example, metabolic engineering of indolic glucosinolates in Chinese cabbage hairy roots was obtained by the overexpression of the Arabidopsis genes CYP79B2, CYP79B3, and CYP83B1 .
