“…These results are in consistent with the findings presented in other studies (Jacobsen, et al, 1994;Sa-Nguansak, 2004;Erley et al, 2005;Bhargava et al, 2008;Abou-Amer and Kamel, 2011;Geren, 2015). Thus, it may be presumed from these results that quinoa plants grown under the conditions of Al-Hassa Oasis preserves substantial nutritional values compatible with those from other regions of the world (Poonia and Upadhayay, 2015;Navruz-Varli and Sanlier, 2016;Vilcacundo and Hernandez-Ledesma, 2017;Zikankuba and James, 2017).…”

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the response of the quinoa yield to nitrogen (N) fertilization, the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) as well as the correlation coefficient to determine the important traits that contribute in determining the productivity of quinoa crop. Three levels of N fertilizer (i.e., 0, 80 and 160 kg N ha-1) were used and laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replicates. The results showed that all tested characteristics were significantly increased with increasing N fertilizer treatments showing grain yields per plant varying from 2.48 to 18.08 g plant-1 and grain yields per hectare ranging from 101.23 to 770.2 kg ha-1. In contrast, NUE was significantly reduced with increasing N fertilizer rates from 5.52 to 4.31. The results indicated that there were significant effects of treatments on some chemical components in grains at 0 and 160 kg N ha-1 (i.e., 14.81 and 17.13% protein respectively); N, phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) contents in grains, roots and stem. According to the correlation between the vegetative traits and grain yield kg ha-1 varied from 0.95 for no. of leaves plant-1 to 0.99 for chlorophyll content, fresh weight plant-1 as well as leaf area. Also, the simple correlation among agronomic and chemical traits had significant and positive relations with the grain yield kg ha-1 under the investigated N treatments with an exception of P content that recorded a relatively high negative correlation with grain yield ha-1 (-0.589). It may be concluded from obtained results that dry weight as a vegetative trait, grain yield plant-1 as an agronomic trait and the ash as a chemical trait should be taking in considerations suggesting the importance of direct selection for these traits as important ones with grain yield ha-1 under studied treatments.

Weeds constitute a huge group of undesirable plants, widespread throughout the world. They represent a big problem for most farmers, who implement different methods to fight against them. Thanks to their wide occurrence, weeds however, can be an excellent indicator of the quality of soil and the whole environment where they are present. In this paper, we present the impact of four alkylimidazolium chlorides with a natural terpene component introduced into the soil: (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-menthol and alkyl substituents containing 1, 4, 9 or 12 carbon atoms, on the growth and development of selected weed species. Compounds with the highest phytotoxic activity towards gallant soldier, white goosefoot and common sorrel were chlorides with methyl and butyl substituents, while compounds with nonyl and dodecyl substituents demonstrated a weak effect on these weeds. Phytotoxicity of the salts tested was largely dependent on the applied concentration of the compound and the genetic make-up of plant species used in the experiment. This was reflected in the inhibition of plants' length and their roots, as well as changes in the content of dry matter and photosynthetic pigments.

“…Soups can be made with Chenopodium or Urtica, which also carry Allium or Foeniculum, for example. The first one provides minerals, fiber, vitamins, and essential fatty acids that enhance the sensory and functional value of the food [51]. The latter is especially significant in the last two cases.…”

Natura 2000 is a network of protected spaces where the use of natural resources is regulated through the Habitat Directive of the European Union. It is essential for the conservation of biodiversity in Europe, but its social perception must be improved. We present this work as a demonstration case of the potentialities of one of these protected areas in the southwest (SW) Iberian Peninsula. We show an overview of the catalog of native wild plants of the place, which have nutritional and edible properties, having been used in human food by the peasant local population over the last century, and whose consumption trend is being implemented in Europe mainly through the haute cuisine and ecotourism sectors. What is offered here is a study of the case of what kind of positive contribution systematized botanical or ethnobotanical scientific knowledge can make toward encouraging innovative and sustainable rural development initiatives. A total of 145 wild plants that are potentially useful for leading tourism and consumers toward haute cuisine, new gastronomy, enviromentally-friendly recipes, and Natura 2000 Conservation are retrieved. The methodology used for our proposal is based on recent proposals of food product development and Basque Culinary Center initiatives.
