Chenopodium is a genus of
numerous species of perennial or annual herbaceous flowering
plants known as thegoosefoots, which occur almost anywhere in
the world.[2] It
is placed in the family Amaranthaceae in
the APG II system; older classification systems, notably
the widely used Cronquist system, separate it and its relatives asChenopodiaceae,
but this leaves the rest of the Amaranthaceae polyphyletic.
However, among the Amaranthaceae, the genus Chenopodium is the
namesake member of the subfamily Chenopodioideae.
In Australia, the larger Chenopodium species
are among the plants called "bluebushes". Chualar in California is
named after a Native American term for
a goosefoot abundant in the region, probably the California goosefoot(Blitum californicum).

Description[edit]
white goosefoot (Chenopodium
album)
The species of Chenopodium (s.str., description
according to Fuentes et al. 2012)[1] are annual or perennial herbs, shrubs or
small trees.
They are nonaromatic, but sometimes foetid. The young stems and leaves are
often densely covered by vesicular globose hairs, thus looking farinose.
Characteristically, these trichomes persist, collapsing later and becoming
cup-shaped. The branched stems grow erect, ascending, prostrate or
scrambling. Lateral branches are alternate (the lowermost ones can be nearly
opposite). The alternate or opposite leaves are
petiolate. Their thin or slightly fleshy leaf blade is linear, rhombic or
triangular-hastate, with entire or dentate or lobed margins.
Inflorescences are standing terminal and lateral.
They consist of spicately or paniculately arranged glomerules of flowers.
Plants are monoecious (rarelydioecious).
In monoecious plants flowers are dimorphic, bisexual or pistillate.
Flowers consist of (4–) 5 perianth segments connate. basally or close to the
middle, usually membranous margined and with a roundish to keeled back; almost
always 5 stamens, and one ovary with 2 stigmas.
In fruit, perianth segments become sometimes coloured, but mostly keep
unchanged, somewhat closing over or spreading from the fruit. Pericarp membranous
or sometimes succulent, adherent to or loosely covering the seed. The
horizontally orientated seeds are depressed-globular to lenticular, with
rounded to subacute margin. The black seed coat is almost smooth to finely
striate, rugulose or pitted.
Uses and human importance[edit]
Cooked quinoa (C.
quinoa) seeds
The genus Chenopodium contains several plants of minor
to moderate importance as food crops as leaf
vegetables – used like the closely relatedspinach (Spinacia
oleracea) and similar plants called quelite in Mexico – andpseudocereals.
These include white goosefoot (C. album), kañiwa (C.
pallidicaule) and quinoa (C. quinoa). On the Greek island
of Crete,
tender shoots and leaves of a species called krouvida (κρουβίδα)
or psarovlito(ψαρόβλητο) are eaten by the locals, boiled or
steamed. As studied by Kristen Gremillion and others, goosefoots
have a history of culinary use dating back to 4000 BC or
earlier, when pitseed goosefoot (C. berlandieri)
was a staple crop in the Native American eastern agricultural complex, and
white goosefoot was apparently used by theErtebølle culture of Europe. The Proto-Indo-Europeans of the eastern Yamna
culture also harvested white goosefoot as an apparent cereal
substitute to round out an otherwise mostly meat and dairy diet c. 3500–2500
BCE.
There is increased interest in particular in goosefoot seeds today,
which are suitable as part of a gluten-free
diet. Quinoa oil, extracted from the seeds of C.
quinoa, has similar properties, but is superior in quality, to corn oil.
Oil of chenopodium is extracted from the seeds of epazote, which
is not in this genus anymore. Shagreen leather
was produced in the past using the small, hard goosefoot seeds. C.
album was one of the main model
organisms for themolecular biological study of chlorophyllase.
Goosefoot pollen, in particular of the widespread and usually
abundant C. album, is an allergen to
many people and a common cause of hay fever.
The same species, as well as some others, have seeds which are able to persist
for years in the soil seed bank. Many goosefoot species are thus
significantweeds,
and some have become invasive
species.
Ecology[edit]
Certain species grow in large thickets,
providing cover for small animals. Goosefoot foliage is used as food by
the caterpillars of
certain Lepidoptera. The seeds are eaten by many birds, such as
the yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) of Europe
or the white-winged fairy-wren (Malurus
leucopterus) ofAustralia. Goosefoot pathogens include
the positive-sense ssRNA viruses - apple stem grooving virus, sowbane mosaic virus and tobacco necrosis virus.
Systematics[edit]
The genus Chenopodium was described by Carl
Linnaeus in 1753 (In: Species Plantarum, Vol. 1,
p. 218–222). Type species is Chenopodium
album. This generic name is derived from the particular shape of the
leaf, which is similar to a goose's foot: from Greek χήν
(chen), "goose" and πούς (pous), "foot" or
ποδίον (podion), "little foot".
In its traditional circumscription, Chenopodium comprised
about 170 species.[2] Phylogenetic
research revealed, that the genus was highly polyphyletic and
did not reflect how species were naturally related. Therefore a new
classification was necessary. Mosyakin & Clemants (2002, 2008) separated
the glandular species as genus Dysphania and Teloxys in tribe Dysphanieae. Fuentes-Bazan et al.
(2012) separated many species to genera Blitum (in
tribeAnserineae), Chenopodiastrum, Lipandra,
and Oxybasis (like Chenopodium in
tribe Atripliceae). They included Rhagodia and Einadia in Chenopodium.[1]

Quinoa (/ˈkiːnoʊ.ə/, from Quechua kinwa or kinuwa )[2] is a
species of the goosefoot genus (Chenopodium
quinoa), a grain crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal,
similar in some respects tobuckwheat, rather than a true cereal, as it is
not a member of the true grass family. As a chenopod,
quinoa is closely related to species such as beetroots, spinach and tumbleweeds.
As a member of the Amaranthaceaefamily, it is related to and
resembles amaranth,
which is also a pseudocereal. After harvest, the seeds must be processed to
remove the coating containing the bitter-tasting saponins. The
seeds are in general cooked the same way as rice and can be used in a wide
range of dishes. The leaves are eaten as a leaf
vegetable, much like amaranth, but commercial availability of quinoa greens is
limited.
The nutrient composition is favourable compared with common cereals.
Quinoa seeds contain essential amino acids like lysine and
acceptable quantities of calcium, phosphorus, and iron.[3] It
is high in protein, and is tolerant of dry soil. The Food and Agriculture Organization of
the United Nations (FAO) declared 2013 to be the International Year of Quinoa.[4] Chenopodium
formosanum is a Taiwanese variant of Red quinoa that isendemic to
Taiwan, and is widely grown in Eastern and Southern Taiwanese Aboriginal cultures.
Quinoa originated in the Andean region
of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia and Chile,[5] and
was domesticated 3,000 to 4,000 years ago for human consumption in the Lake
Titicaca basin, though archaeological evidence shows a
non-domesticated association with pastoral herding some 5,200 to 7,000 years
ago.[6]
Similar Chenopodium species, such as pitseed goosefoot
(Chenopodium berlandieri) and fat hen (Chenopodium
album), were grown and domesticated in North America as part of
the Eastern Agricultural Complex before maize agriculture
became popular.[7] Fat
hen, which has a widespread distribution in theNorthern Hemisphere, produces edible seeds and
greens much like quinoa, but in smaller quantities.
Biology[edit]
Quinoa seeds
Quinoa plant before flowering
Chenopodium quinoa is a dicotyledonous annual
plant usually about 1–2 m (3.3–6.6 ft) high. It has broad, generally
pubescent, powdery, smooth (rarely) to lobed leaves normally arranged
alternately. The woody central stem is
branched or unbranched depending on the variety and may be green, red or
purple. The flowering panicles arise from the top of the plant or from leaf
axils along the stem. Each panicle has a central axis from which a secondary
axis emerges either with flowers (amaranthiform) or bearing a tertiary axis
carrying the flowers (glomeruliform).[8] The
green hypogynous flowers have a simple perianth and
are generally self-fertilizing.[8][9] The
fruits are about 2 mm (0.08 in) in diameter and of various
colors—from white to red or black, depending on the cultivar.[3]
Natural distribution[edit]
Chenopodium quinoa is believed to have been domesticated in
the Peruvian Andes from wild or weed populations of the same species.[10] There
are non-cultivated quinoa plants (Chenopodium quinoa var.melanospermum)
that grow in the area it is cultivated; these may either be related to wild
predecessors, or they could be descendants of cultivated plants.[11]
Saponin content[edit]
Red quinoa, cooked
In their natural state, the seeds have a coating of bitter-tasting saponins, making
them unpalatable. Most of the grain sold commercially has been
processed to remove this coating.[12] This
bitterness has beneficial effects during cultivation, as it is unpopular with
birds and therefore requires minimal protection.[13] The
genetic control of bitterness involves quantitative inheritance; lowering the
saponin content through selective breeding to produce sweeter, more palatable
varieties is complicated by about 10% cross-pollination.[14]
The toxicity category rating of quinoa
saponins treats them as mild eye and respiratory irritants and as a low gastrointestinal
irritant.[15][16] The
saponin is a toxic glycoside, a main contributor to its hemolytic effects
when combined directly with blood cells. In South America, quinoa saponin has
many uses, including as a detergent for clothing and washing and as an
antiseptic for skin injuries.[15] High
levels of oxalic acid are in the leaves and stems of all
species of the Chenopodium genus, and are also in the related
genera of the Amaranthaceae family.[17] The
risks associated with quinoa are minimal, provided it is properly prepared and
the leaves are not eaten to excess.

Nutritional evaluations indicate that raw (uncooked) quinoa is a rich
source of protein,dietary
fiber, several B vitamins and dietary
minerals, nutrients whose contents are substantially reduced by
cooking (table).[15][18] Analysis
shows its protein is relatively high in essential amino acids.[19]

In a 100 g (3.5 oz) serving, cooked quinoa
provides 120 calories and is a moderate source (10-19% of theDaily
Value, DV) of protein, dietary fiber, folate, and the
dietary minerals, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus,
and manganese (table).
It is gluten-free
and considered easy to digest. Because of these characteristics, it is being
considered as a possible crop in NASA's Controlled Ecological Life
Support System for long-duration human occupied space flights.[21]
It has a notably short germination period: only 2–4 hours in water is enough
to make it sprout, as opposed to 12 hours with wheat.[22] This
process softens the seeds, making them suitable for salads and
other foods.
Cultivation[edit]
Climate requirements[edit]
Harvested quinoa seeds
The plant's growth is highly variable due to a high complexity of
different subspecies, varieties and landraces (domesticated
plants or animals adapted to the environment in which they originated).
However, in general it is undemanding and altitude-hardy. It is grown from
coastal regions to over 4,000 m (13,000 ft) in the Andes near the
equator, with most of the cultivars being grown between 2,500 m
(8,200 ft) and 4,000 m (13,000 ft). Depending on the variety,
optimal growing conditions are in cool climates with temperatures that vary
between −4 °C (25 °F) during the night to near 35 °C
(95 °F) during the day. Some cultivars can withstand lower temperatures
without damage. Light frosts normally do not affect the plants at any stage of
development, except during flowering. Mid-summer frosts during flowering, often
occurring in the Andes, lead to sterilization of the pollen. Rainfall
conditions are highly variable between the different cultivars, ranging from
300 to 1,000 mm (12 to 39 in) during growing season. Growth is
optimal with well-distributed rainfall during early growth and development and
dry conditions during seed maturation and harvesting.[8]
Quinoa has been cultivated in the United States, primarily in the high
elevation San Luis Valley (SLV) ofColorado where
it was introduced in 1982.[citation needed] In this
high-altitude desert valley, maximum summer temperatures rarely exceed
30 °C (86 °F) and night temperatures are about 7 °C
(45 °F). Due to the short growing season, North American cultivation
requires short-maturity varieties, typically of Bolivian origin.
Several countries within Europe, including France, England, Holland,
Belgium, Germany and Spain now have successfully grown quinoa on a commercial
scale.[23] Within
the UK, crops are grown as population and mechanically harvested in September.[24]
Sowing[edit]
Quinoa plants do best in sandy, well-drained soils with a low nutrient
content, moderate salinity, and a soil pH of 6 to 8.5.
The seedbed must
be well prepared and drained to avoid waterlogging. In the Andes, the seeds are
normally broadcast over the land and raked into the soil. Sometimes it is sown
in containers of soil and transplanted later.
Cultivation management[edit]
Yields are maximised when 170 to 200 kg (370 to 440 lb) N/hectare is
available.[citation needed] The
addition of phosphorus does not improve yield. In eastern North America, it is
susceptible to a leaf miner that may reduce crop success and which
also affects the common weed and close relative Chenopodium
album, but C. album is much more resistant.
Harvesting and handling[edit]
Threshing quinoa in Peru
Quinoa grain is usually harvested by hand and rarely by machine, because
the extreme variability of the maturity period of most Quinoa cultivars
complicates mechanization. Harvest needs to be precisely timed to avoid high
seed losses from shattering, and different panicles on the same plant mature at
different times. The seed yield (often around 3 t/ha up to 5 t/ha) is
comparable to wheat yields in the Andean areas. In the United States, varieties
have been selected for uniformity of maturity and are mechanically harvested
using conventional small grain combines. The plants are allowed to stand until
they are dry[clarification needed] and
the grain has reached a moisture content below 10%. Handling involves threshing
the seedheads and winnowing the seed to remove the husk. Before storage,
the seeds need to be dried in order to avoid germination.[8] Dry
seeds can be stored raw until washed or mechanically processed to remove the
pericarp to eliminate the bitter layer containing saponins.
History and culture[edit]
Early history[edit]
Quinoa was first domesticated by Andean peoples
around 3,000 to 4,000 years ago.[25] It
has been an important staple in the Andean cultures where the plant is
indigenous but relatively obscure in the rest of the world.[26] The Incas, who held the
crop to be sacred,[27] referred
to it as chisaya mama or "mother of all grains", and
it was the Inca emperor who would traditionally sow the first seeds of the
season using "golden implements".[27] During
theSpanish
conquest of South America, the colonists scorned it as "food for
Indians",[28] and
suppressed its cultivation, due to its status within indigenous religious
ceremonies.[29] The conquistadors forbade
quinoa cultivation for a time[30] and
the Incas were forced to grow wheat instead.[31]

The grain has become increasingly popular in the United States, Canada,
Europe, Australia, China and Japan where it is not typically grown, increasing
crop value.[34] Between
2006 and early 2013 quinoa crop prices tripled.[35] In
2011, the average price was US$3,115 per ton with some varieties selling as
high as $8,000 per ton.[36] This
compares with wheat prices
of $9 per bushel (about $340 per ton). Since the 1970s, producers’ associations
and cooperatives have worked toward greater producer control of the market. The
higher prices make it harder for people to purchase, but also brings a livable
income for farmers and enables many urban
refugees to return to working the land.[37]
The popularity of quinoa grain in non-indigenous regions has raised
concerns over food security. Due to continued widespread poverty in
regions where it is produced and because few other crops are compatible with
the soil and climate in these regions, it has been suggested that the inflated
price disrupts local access to food supplies.[35] In
2013, The Guardian compared it to asparagus cultivated in
Peru, a cash crop criticized for excessive water use,[38] as
"feeding our apparently insatiable 365-day-a-year hunger for this luxury
vegetable[...]"[35] It
has been suggested that, as people rise above subsistence-level income, they
choose higher-status Western processed foods. However, anthropologist Pablo
Laguna states that farmers are still saving a portion of the quinoa crop for
their own use, and that the high prices affect nearby city dwellers more, but
consumption in cities has traditionally been lower. According to Laguna, the
net benefit of increased revenue for farmers outweighs the costs, saying that
it is "very good news for small, indigenous farmers".[39] The
transformation from a healthy staple food for farming families and communities
into a product that is held to be worth too much to keep for oneself and one's
family is an ongoing process. It is seen as a valuable resource that can bring
in far greater amounts[clarification needed] of
cheap, low nutrient foods such as pasta and rice. It used to be seen as a
peasant food that provided farming families with a very important source of
nutrition, but now occupies a spectrum from an everyday food of urban Bolivia's
middle class to a luxury food in the Peruvian capital of Lima where "it
sells at a higher per pound price than chicken, and four times as much as
rice".[40] Efforts
are being made in some areas to distribute it more widely and ensure that
farming and poorer populations have access to it and have an understanding of
its nutritional importance. These include incorporating it into free school
breakfasts and in government provisions distributed to pregnant and nursing
women in need.[40]
Kosher controversy[edit]
Quinoa has become popular in the Jewish community as a substitute for
the leavened
grains that are forbidden during the Passover holiday.
Severalkosher certification
organizations refuse to certify it as being kosher for Passover, citing reasons
including its resemblance to prohibited grains or fear of cross-contamination
of the product from nearby fields of prohibited grain or during packaging.[41]
In December 2013, the Orthodox
Union, the world's largest kosher certification agency, announced
it would begin certifying quinoa as kosher for Passover.[42]
International Year of Quinoa[edit]
Logo of International Year of Quinoa 2013
The United Nations General Assembly declared 2013
as the "International Year of Quinoa" [43][44][45] in
recognition of ancestral practices of the Andean people,
who have preserved it as food for present and future generations, through
knowledge and practices of living in harmony with nature. The objective is to
draw the world’s attention to the role that quinoa could play in providing food
security, nutrition and poverty eradication, in support of achievingMillennium Development Goals.
