“…It has been reported to range from 0.4 to 0.6 g/m 2 in Bolivian Altiplano, from 0.5 to 2.3 g/m 2 in Puno, and from 0.8 to 1.4 g/m 2 in Ecuador. A density of 1.2 g/m 2 has been recommended in Puno for mechanical drilling (Valencia-Chamorro 2003).…”

Jancurová M., Minarovičová L., Dandár A. (2009): Quinoa -a review. Czech J. Food Sci., 27: 71-79.The healthy lifestyle and appropriate nutrition are stressed nowadays. New foodstuffs are still investigated with the aim to improve the diet and conduce to a better health state of the population. Pseudocereals (amaranth, buckwheat, and quinoa) are convenient for this purpose. Their high nutritious and dietary quality meets the demands of the food industry and consumers. Our collective dealt with quinoa, a commodity of Andean, because quinoa is a good source of essential amino acids such as lysine and methionine. Quinoa contains relatively high quantities of vitamins (thiamin, vitamin C) and minerals.

“…Valencia-Chamorro [8] categorized these varieties and ecotypes into five groups according to an altitudinal gradient and environment: sea level, valleys, the Yungas (subtropics), the Salares (salt flats) and the Altiplano (high plains). Although valley ecotypes are cultivated at around 2000 -4000 m, they receive similar amounts of annual rainfall as the sea level ecotypes cultivated at lower elevations (800 -1500 m).…”

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a halophytic, allotetraploid grain crop of the Amaranthaceae family with impressive drought tolerance, nutritional content and an increasing worldwide market. Here we report the results of an RNA-seq transcriptome analysis of Chenopodium quinoa using four water treatments (field capacity to drought) on the varieties "Ingapirca" (representing valley ecotypes) and "Ollague" (representing Altiplano Salares ecotypes). Physiological results, including growth rate, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and stem water potential, support the earlier findings that the Altiplano Salares ecotypes display greater tolerance to drought-like stress conditions than the valley ecotypes. cDNA libraries from root tissue samples for each variety × treatment combination were sequenced using Illumina Hi-Seq technology in an RNA-seq experiment. De novo assembly of the transcriptome generated 20,337 unique transcripts. Gene expression analysis of the RNA-seq data identified 462 putative gene products that showed differential expression based on treatment, and 27 putative gene products differentially expressed based on variety × treatment, including significant expression differences in root tissue in response to increasing water stress. BLAST searches and gene ontology analysis show an overlap between drought tolerance stress and other abiotic stress mechanisms.
