  • THE EVOLUTION of SEED MORPHOLOGY in DOMESTICATED Chenopodium: an ARCHAEOLOGICAL CASE STUDY
    ]. Ethnobiol. 13(2):149-169 Winter 1993 THE EVOLUTION OF SEED MORPHOLOGY IN DOMESTICATED Chenopodium: AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL CASE STUDY KRISTEN }. GREMILLION Department of Anthropology The Ohio Stute University Columbus, OH 43210-1364 ABSTRACf.-A large body of data on several key morphological characters has been compiled through examination of collections of archaeological Chenopodium from eastern North America. Contrary to expectations based on change in certain other seed crops, the patterns of variation observed in Chenopodium do not reflect a gradual evolution of seed morphology away from the wild type. Evidence for decreasing levels of morphological variability in the evolving domesticate is like­ wise minimal. These findings demonstrate that the rate and character of crop evolution as revealed in the archaeological record can be expected to vary consid­ erably among taxa. RESUMEN.-Se ha compilado un extenso ouerpo de datos sobre varios carac­ teres morfol6gicos clave mediante el examen de colecciones de Chenopodium arqueol6gico del este de Norteamerica. Contrariamente a las expectativas basadas en el cambio en ciertos otms cultivos de semilla, los patrones de variaci6n obser­ vados en Chenopodium no reflejan una evoluci6n gradual de la morfologia de las semillas en credente distancia del tipo silvestre. La evidencia de niveles decre­ cientes de variabilidad morfol6gica en la especie domesticada en evoluci6n es asimismo minima. Estos resultados demuestran que puede esperarse que la 13sa y el caracter de la evoluci6n de los cultivos, tal y como se revela en el registro arqueol6gico, varien considerablemente entre taxa distintos.

In Mexico, more than 250 species with edible stems, leaves, vines and flowers, known as “quelites,” are collected or are cultivated and consumed. The assessment of the quelite composition depends on the chemical characteristics of the compounds being evaluated; the protein quality is a direct function of the amino acid content, which is evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the contribution of minerals is evaluated by atomic absorption spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) or ICP mass spectrometry. The total contents of phenols, flavonoids, carotenoids, saponins and other general compounds have been analyzed using UV-vis spectrophotometry and by HPLC.

Academic Editor: Marc A. Rosen Received: 20 December 2014 / Accepted: 11 March 2015 / Published: 17 March 2015 Abstract: As sustainable production of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) increases and its geographic range of cultivation expands, quinoa breeding will allow use of the crop’s wide genetic diversity for cultivar improvement and for adaptation to new agroecosystems and climactic regimes. Such breeding work will require a reliable technique for crossing quinoa plants using hand emasculation. The technique described herein focuses on the isolation of small flower clusters produced low on the plant, emasculation of male flowers, and subsequent pairing of the emasculated female parent with a male parent undergoing anthesis. Various traits, such as plant color, seed color, and axil pigmentation can be used to confirm the successful production of F1 plants.

  • Understanding the Weedy Chenopodium Complex in the North Central States
    UNDERSTANDING THE WEEDY CHENOPODIUM COMPLEX IN THE NORTH CENTRAL STATES BY SUKHVINDER SINGH DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Crop Sciences in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Patrick J. Tranel, Chair Associate Professor Aaron G. Hager Associate Professor Geoffrey A. Levin Assistant Professor Matthew E. Hudson ABSTRACT The genus Chenopodium consists of several important weed species, including Chenopodium album, C. berlandieri, C. strictum, and C. ficifolium. All of these species share similar vegetative morphology and high phenotypic plasticity, which makes it difficult to correctly identify these species. All of these weedy Chenopodium species have developed resistance to one or more classes of herbicides. An experiment was conducted to determine if there is variability in response of Chenopodium species present in the North Central states to glyphosate. Our results indicate variable responses within and among the Chenopodium species. Species such as C. berlandieri and C. ficifolium had higher levels of tolerance to glyphosate than did various accessions of C. album. In another experiment, 33 populations of Chenopodium sampled across six North Central states were screened with glyphosate. The results showed variable responses to glyphosate within and among the Chenopodium populations. In general, the Chenopodium populations from Iowa were more tolerant, but some biotypes from North Dakota, Indiana and Kansas also had significantly high tolerance to glyphosate. Given there are species other than C. album that have high tolerance to glyphosate, and there are Chenopodium populations across the North Central states that showed tolerance to glyphosate, one intriguing question was to whether the Chenopodium populations were either biotypes of C.

  • Limeklin Canyon Park “Dirty Dozen” Weeds Identification
    To Protect and Preserve Natural Habitat LIMEKLIN CANYON PARK “DIRTY DOZEN” WEEDS IDENTIFICATION THIS BOOKLET WAS CREATED TO ASSIST DEPARTMENT OF RECREATION AND PARK STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS IN THE IDENTIFICATION OF PROBLEMATIC WEEDS. THE NAME “DIRTY DOZEN” WAS GIVEN TO THE TWELVE PLANTS THAT PREVENT THE ESTABLISHMENT OF NATIVE FLORA DUE TO THEIR HIGH REPRODUCTIVE RATE AND ACCELERATED GROWTH. THE “DIRTY DOZEN” ARE IDENTIFIED, ILLUSTRATED, AND LISTED IN THE ORDER THAT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE NATURAL ECOSYSTEM OF LIMEKLIN CANYON PARK. 2 MAIN GOALS AND OBJECTIVES OF THIS BOOKLET 1) Support and restore the natural ecosystem found in Limeklin Canyon Park through the management and control of invasive plants. 2) To establish an Integrated Pest Management Program specific to Limeklin Canyon Park. 3) Build valuable resources for Department of Recreation and Parks staff and the public. 3 Some exotic plants, as well as native vegetation, with aggressive qualities may be considered a weed if it adversely affect the sustainability of the natural areas and encroaches into developed landscapes. Weed problems can be largely avoided by careful landscape design, soil preparation before planting, and adequately scheduled irrigation and mulching. Weed control can be achieved through a combination of the following five control methods: PREVENTIVE: Preventive method is defined as keeping the weeds from entering or becoming established in the area. Monitoring the area for early detection of unwanted plants is crucial for the preventative methods to work. If a new weed is discovered, immediate actions need to be taken in order to prevent seed production and establishment. CULTURAL: Cultural method is defined as maintenance practices that will make it difficult for weeds to grow or become established, (i.e., select proper plants for the location, irrigation management, and pruning).
