Biennials; usually eglandular, rarely glandular; finely pubescent, sometimes canescent, trichomes dendritic. Stems erect, unbranched basally, often many-branched distally, (1.5–)2.5–12 dm. Basal leaves: petiole 1–3.5(–5.5) cm; blade pinnatifid, broadly lanceolate to oblanceolate or obovate in outline, 1.5–10(–13) cm, lateral lobes linear to oblong or narrowly lanceolate, [3–10(–15) × 1–3(–5) mm], margins entire. Cauline leaves sessile or shortly petiolate; blade smaller distally, distal lobes often narrower. Racemes considerably elongated in fruit. Fruiting pedicels erect to erect-ascending, straight, 2–8(–11) mm. Flowers: sepals erect, yellowish, oblong, 1–1.8 mm, sparsely pubescent; petals oblanceolate, 1.2–2 × 0.3–0.6 mm; median filaments 1.4–2 mm; anthers 0.3–0.4 mm. Fruits erect, (often strictly appressed to rachis), linear, slightly torulose, (4–)5–10(–15) × 0.7–1.2(–1.5) mm, (acute at both ends); valves each with distinct midvein; septum often with distinct midvein; ovules 14–22 per ovary; style 0.1–0.4 mm, glabrous. Seeds uniseriate, reddish brown, ellipsoid to narrowly oblong, 0.8–1.2 × 0.4–0.5 mm. 2n = 14, 28.
Phenology: Flowering May–Sep.
Habitat: Alpine and subalpine areas, gravel and sand bars, scree, grassy slopes, prairies, steep rocky slopes, roadsides, disturbed sites, waste grounds, meadows, spruce-fir, pine, aspen, or sagebrush communities
Elevation: 100-3500 m

Discussion
Descurainia incana is a distinctive species readily separated from the other North American taxa of the genus by having fruits and fruiting bases strictly appressed to rachises, and septums with a distinct midvein. Collections identified as such, but with fruits and pedicels not or only weakly appressed to the rachis, most likely represent hybrids between this species and others.
