Chenopodium album L. ssp. album is a common plant species worldwide, especially in humid areas. Sun exposure after oral intake of the plant can lead to sunburn-like rashes owing to its furocoumarin content. In this article, we reported nine patients who developed dermatitis with edema, erythema and necrosis on the face and dorsum of the hands. Each was exposed to sunlight after eating selemez (...

BACKGROUND A Chenopodium album L. biotype surviving in atrazine-treated Serbian corn fields (VC) was compared against atrazine-susceptible (S) and atrazine-resistant (R) standards. RESULTS Atrazine (2 kg ha(-1)) killed S and VC shoot biomass 15 days after treatment (DAT), but R was only suppressed by 42% and survived 8 kg ha(-1). Atrazine at 2 kg ha(-1) only inhibited VC height by 60% as agai...

According to the importance and diversity of Chenopodium album, Cynodon dactylon and Amaranthus retroflexus in safflower fields and significant role of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) as an oil seed, an experiment was conducted using CRD based factorial design with three replications to study the allelopathic effects of root and shoot extracts of these weeds on germination and early growth ...

Fig. 6. Analysis of the volatile amines present in Chenopodium vulvaria L. Curve A: standard mixture ofmono-, diand tri-methylamines. Curve B: chromatogram of the amines present in an acid extract ofthe plant, showing the presence of only ammonia and trimethylamine. (Column length, 4ft.; liquid phase, hendecanol-iS% liquid paraffin (v/v); temp., 78 50; flow rate of nitrogen, 5.7 ml./min.; nitro...

In this paper, we report a new occurrence of Myricaria germanica (L.) Desf in secondary habitat from the north-eastern part Hungary, edge Bükk Mountains, slag dump Miskolc. The plant is established on steep wall formed during extraction slag. Due to erosion wall, occasionally few plants fall off. age dead specimens between 5 and 13 years, based their growth rings. population about 50 individual...

The effect of 2-benzylamino-1,3,5-triazines on photosynthetic electron transport (PET) was measured with thylakoids isolated from atrazine-resistant, wild-type Chenopodium album, and spinach to find novel 1,3,5-triazine herbicides bearing a strong PET inhibition. The PET inhibition assay with Chenopodium (wild-type and resistant), yielded a resistance ratio (R/W = I50 (resistant)/I50 (wild-type...

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) was first domesticated in Andean countries over 7000 years ago. Following the Spanish conquest, quinoa was rejected as "Indian food." After centuries of neglect, the potential of quinoa was rediscovered during the second half of the 20th century. Since then, the number of countries importing quinoa increased, with new producers appearing on the map and quinoa ...

Essential oils of sixteen Chinese medicinal plants were screened for fumigant toxicity against Bemisia tabaci. The essential oil of Allium sativum exhibited the strongest fumigant activity against B. tabaci with an LC50 value of 0.11 μg/l followed by the essential oils of Agastache rugosa (LC50 = 7.08 μg/l), Illicium verum (LC50 = 8.61 μg/l), Chenopodium ambrosioides (LC50 = 8.80 μg/l), and Syz...
