1 Quinoa's Spreading at Global Level: State of the Art, Trends and Challenges -- 2 Taxonomy, Morphology and Life Cycle of Quinoa -- 3 The Nutritional Applications of Quinoa Seeds -- 4 Quinoa Genetics -- 5 Advances of Biotechnology in Quinoa Production - A Global Perspective -- 6 Agronomic Manipulations for Cultivation of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) -- 7 Symbiosis Native Microorganisms of the Quinoa in the Bolivian Altiplano -- 8 Root Analysis of Quinoa Plant -- 9 Influence of Biotic and Abiotic Stresses on Quinoa Cultivation: Insights into Microbe Assisted Stress Tolerance -- 10 Physiology of Quinoa in Saline Conditions -- 11 Mechanisms of Salinity Tolerance in Quinoa -- 12 Bioactive Compounds in Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) and Kaniwa (Chenopodium pallidicaule) -- 13 Protocol for Seed Surface Sterilization and In-vitro Cultivation -- 14 Quinoa Starch Granules as Emulsion Stabilizers -- 15 Quinoa Fermentation and Dry Roasting to Improve Nutritional Quality and Sensory Properties -- 16 Climate Change: Challenge of Introducing Quinoa in Southeast European Agriculture -- 17 Recent Advances in the Application of Biotechnology for Improving the Production of Secondary Metabolites from Quinoa -- 18 Quinoa, a Model-crop for Tomorrow's Agriculture -- 19 Quinoa - The Next Biotech Plant: Food Security, Environmental and Health Hot Spots -- 20 Quinoa: From Farm to Traditional Healing, Food Application, and Phytopharmacology.

This book is designed to popularize Quinoa cereal among both scientific and food industry. Quinoa is an attractive candidate for protein replacement, has potential for futuristic biotechnological modifications, and is able to grow under many different abiotic stresses. To save the world from animal cruelty, quinoa emerges as a hero for vegans and vegetarians. This book deals with morphological features, life cycle, nutritional qualities, genetics, agronomic manipulations, ecological communications, stress tolerance mechanisms, and food applications of Chenopodium quinoa. Quinoa is a pseudo-cereal native to Andes Region in South America. Over time, it spread to many different regions worldwide and is emerging as protein-rich vegetarian food source. In order to cure malnutrition globally, it is important to channel this lesser-known grain to local cultivators. This can only be done through well-proven scientific data that supports its qualities. This book aims to do the same, while also giving an insight into the vast scope quinoa posses as an experimental crop. Its stress-tolerant abilities can inspire scientists to understand those mechanisms, further exploit them, and even introduce them into other stress-sensitive crops. In future, quinoa can be among the top sources that offer food security. Due to its adaptability, ease of cultivation, and rich output, sustainability can be achieved by regulating its breeding and growth. This book is of interest to researchers, teachers, agronomic cultivators, environmentalists, botanists, microbiologists, geneticists and food technologists. This book covers recent advances, challenges in cultivation, biology, nutrition, and agricultural science topics, suitable for both young learners and advanced scientists. Cultivators who want to know more about quinoa and introduce it into their agronomic applications will find helpful information from the text.
