Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive account of the botany, production and uses of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa). The book is divided into four sections spread over 14 chapters. Part I (chapters 1-3) introduces the readers to the crop, its history and distribution. Part II (chapters 4-5) discusses the taxonomic position based on morphological, cytological and molecular data. Part III (chapters 6-11) is dedicated to agrotechnology and includes chapters on botany, crop production and management, pathology and breeding approaches. Part IV (chapters 12-14) describes the nutritional significance of the crop, and also contains detailed discussion of the antinutritional components. The book aims to stimulate interest in the crop among academics and researchers, both novices and experts, and among those who are increasingly focused on exploiting this underutilized crop.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
