mustard cress agrião

Explanation:
A meu ver não existe a diferença em português, é agrião mesmo. Para quem conhece o agrião veja a foto de mustard cress no link http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://static.flickr....

E este link explica que o agrião é da mesma família da mostarda e que sua geometria pode ser alterada no cultivo, mas continua a ser agrião em português. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.ceunossase...

As can be read on site above, mustard cress is the same as white mustard, which means mostarda branca in Portuguese. In the BBC link we can infer that mustard cress is a mixture of white mustard and cress.
