The literary part of the diploma thesis deals with traditional raw ma-terials, special malts and non-traditional raw materials for beer producti-on and beer production as such. Furthermore, the production of beers from non-traditional raw materials in the world. The experimental part is devoted to the description of the production of own beers from non-traditional malts (amaranth, chickpeas, sorghum, buckwheat, quinoa) and their chemical analysis by HPLC and Fermen-toFlash. In the next part a method of sensory analysis was described, and the results were then shown using radar charts. In the results and discussion section these analyzes are statistically processed and evaluated for the mutual dependence of the substances from the chemical analysis on the sensory characteristics of the individu-al products.

Evaluation of Downy Mildew (Peronospora farinosa f.sp. chenopodii) Resistance among Quinoa Genotypes and Investigation of P. farinosa Growth using Scanning Electron MicroscopyKitz, Leilani 15 July 2008 (has links) (PDF)
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a pseudocereal native to the Andean region of South America and a staple crop for subsistence farmers in the altiplano of Bolivia and Peru. Downy mildew is the most significant disease of quinoa caused by the pathogen Peronospora farinosa f.sp. chenopodii Byford. This disease greatly impacts quinoa crops with yield losses up to 99%. As fungicides are expensive for farmers, the development of resistant cultivars appears to be the most efficient means for controlling downy mildew. The quinoa germplasm bank contains high amounts of genetic diversity, some of which exhibit mildew resistance. Methods for evaluating mildew severity are important for finding resistant genotypes that are useful in breeding programs. The main objectives of this study were to evaluate and investigate downy mildew resistance in quinoa through several different methods. A simple inoculation method was developed for downy mildew disease assessment by placing a damp piece of cheesecloth on a leaf, pipetting a known spore solution onto the cloth, and subjecting the plants to specific humidity cycles in a growth chamber. After inoculation of five quinoa-breeding lines in a growth chamber, accession 0654 was found to be the most resistant, while genotypes NL6 and Sayana showed moderate resistance. Each of these genotypes displayed some potential for resistance breeding programs. Investigation of the growth and development of P. farinosa through resistant and susceptible quinoa genotypes revealed fewer sporangiophores, hyphal strands, and haustoria among leaf tissues of accession 0654 than in the susceptible Chucapaca cultivar. Peronospora farinosa growth was detected in leaf, petiole, and stem tissues with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using ITSP primers designed from the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the pathogen. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) also revealed that P. farinosa penetrated stomata via appressoria, secreted extracellular matrices during sporangia germination, grew intercellularly in leaf and petiole tissues, and exited leaf tissue through stomata. Future research requiring knowledge of resistant quinoa genotypes, P. farinosa growth and development, or inoculation methods for large numbers of small quinoa plants would benefit from this report.

Physical Mapping of Ribosomal Genes in New World Members of the Genus Chenopodium Using Fluorescence in Situ HybridizationSederberg, Maria C. 27 October 2008 (has links) (PDF)
The genus Chenopodium contains many economically important species in the New World, but is relatively understudied and poorly understood, especially in terms of evolutionary relationships. A better understanding of the structure of this genus could significantly help in breeding efforts on its cultivated members, notably the tetraploid C. quinoa and also certain varieties of C. berlandieri, also tetraploid. Of special concern is determining which diploid weed species are the most likely ancestors for C. quinoa, C. berlandieri, and the other tetraploid members of subsection Cellulata. The phylogeny can be understood in part by examining the ribosomal RNA loci and observing how many copies of the 5S and 45S loci each New World species contains. In this work, the 5S and 45S ribosomal RNA loci are characterized by means of fluorescence in situ hybridization in 23 Chenopodium species collected in the New World, with the 5S locus labeled red and the 45S locus labeled green. Based on these results, the pool of most likely candidate ancestor species for C. quinoa and C. berlandieri includes C. fremontii, C. incanum, C. neomexicanum, and C. watsonii.

Genetic Dissection of Triterpenoid Saponin Production in Chenopodium quinoa Using Microarray AnalysisReynolds, Derrick James 02 December 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an important food crop for subsistence farmers in the Altiplano (high plains) of Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina. Saponins are part of a diverse family of secondary metabolites that are found in high concentrations in the pericarp of many varieties of quinoa. Due to their bitter taste and anti-nutritive properties, saponins must be removed before the quinoa grain is consumed. There are ‘sweet’ varieties of quinoa that have significantly reduced levels of saponin. Previous research suggests saponin production is controlled by a single locus. The major objective of this research was to elucidate the genetic components in the saponin biosynthesis pathway. Thus, we report the development and annotation of the first large scale expressed sequence tag (EST) collection for quinoa based on Sanger and 454 pyrosequencing of maturing seed tissue expressing saponins. Sanger sequencing produced 18,325 reads with an average read length of 693 nucleotides, while 454 GS-FLX pyrosequencing generated 295,048 reads with an average read length of 202 nucleotides. A hybrid assembly of all sequences generated 39,366 unigenes, consisting of 16,728 contigs and 22,638 singletons. Repeat sequence analysis of the unigene set identified 291 new microsatellite markers. From the unigene set, a custom microarray was developed and used to assay transcriptional changes in developing seeds of saponin-containing and saponin-free quinoa lines. The microarray consisted of 102,834 oligonucleotide probes representing 37,716 sequences of the unigenes set. Three different statistical comparisons, based on comparisons of ‘sweet’ vs. ‘bitter’ seed tissue at two developmental stages, were assayed on the custom array. Using a p-value cutoff threshold of 0.01, we identified a list of 198 significantly differentially expressed candidate genes common to all three comparisons. We also identified a list of candidate genes (p-value ≤ 0.05) that are known to be associated with identified triterpenoid (saponin) biosynthetic pathways that were differentially expressed in all three comparisons. Included in this list are candidate genes that share homology to cytochrome P450s (20), cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (10), and glycosyltransferases (49) suggesting that transcriptional differences in the saponin biosynthesis pathway possibly responsible for the absence or presence of saponin in quinoa are determined after the formation of the β-amyrin skeleton. These candidate genes are suggested for use in future studies in the production of saponin in quinoa.

Physiological Assessment of Chenopodium quinoa to Salt StressMorales, Arturo Jason 17 July 2009 (has links) (PDF)
The physiological responses to salt stress were measured in Chenopodium quinoa. In a greenhouse experiment, salt water was applied to the quinoa varieties, Chipaya and KU-2, and to the model halophyte Thellungiella halophila to assess their relative responses to salt stress. Height and weight data from a seven-week time course demonstrated that both cultivars exhibited greater tolerance to salt than T. halophila. In a growth chamber experiment, three quinoa cultivars, Chipaya, Ollague, and CICA 17 were hydroponically grown and physiological responses were measured with four salt treatments. Tissues collected from the growth chamber treatments were used to obtain leaf succulence data, tissue ion concentrations, compatible solute concentrations, and RNA for real-time PCR. Stomatal conductance and fresh weight were measured to determine the degree of stress and recovery. The expression profiles of SOS1, NHX1, and TIP2, genes involved in salt stress, showed constitutive expression in root tissue and up-regulation in leaf tissue in response to salt stress. These data suggest that quinoa tolerates salt through a combination of exclusion and accumulation mechanisms.

Application of Genome Reduction, Next Generation Sequencing, and KASPar Genotyping in Development, Characterization, and Linkage Mapping of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the Grain Amaranths and QuinoaSmith, Scott Matthew 13 March 2013 (has links) (PDF)
The grain amaranths (Amaranthus sp.) and quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) are important seed crops in South America. These crops have gained international attention in recent years for their nutritional quality and tolerance to abiotic stress. We report the identification and development of functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assays for both amaranth and quinoa. SNPs were identified using a genome reduction protocol and next generation sequencing. SNP assays are based on KASPar genotyping chemistry and were detected using the Fluidigm dynamic array platform. A diversity screen consisting of 41 amaranth accessions showed that the minor allele frequency (MAF) of the amaranth markers ranged from 0.05 to 0.5 with an average MAF of 0.27. A diversity screen of 113 quinoa accessions showed that the MAF of the quinoa markers ranged from 0.02 to 0.5 with an average MAF of 0.28. Linkage mapping in amaranth produced a linkage map consisting of 16 linkage groups, presumably corresponding to each of the 16 amaranth haploid chromosomes. This map spans 1288 cM with an average marker density of 3.1 cM per marker. Linkage mapping in quinoa resulted in a linkage map consisting of 29 linkage groups with 20 large linkage groups, spanning 1,404 cM with a marker density of 3.1 cM per SNP marker. The SNPs identified here represent important genomic tools needed for genetic dissection of agronomically important characteristics and advanced genetic analysis of agronomic traits in amaranth and quinoa. We also describe in detail the scalable and cost effective SNP genotyping method used in this research. This method is based on KBioscience's competitive allele specific PCR amplification of target sequences and endpoint fluorescence genotyping (KASPar) using a FRET capable plate reader or Fluidigm's dynamic array high throughput platform.

Transcriptome Analysis of Drought Induced Stress in Chenopodium QuinoaRaney, Joshua Arthur 13 December 2012 (has links) (PDF)
RNA-seq transcriptome analysis of Chenopodium quinoa at different water treatment levels was conducted in a greenhouse study using four water treatments (field capacity to drought) on a valley ecotype quinoa (variety Ingapirca) and an Altiplano Salares ecotype quinoa (variety Ollague). Physiological results support the earlier findings that the Salares ecotypes display greater tolerance to drought-like stress conditions than the valley ecotypes (as determined by growth rate, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and stem water potential). cDNA libraries from root tissue sample for each treatment x variety 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 differential expressed based on variety x treatment, including significant increasing expression in the root tissue in response to increasing water stress. BLAST searches and gene ontology analysis show an overlap with drought tolerance stress and other abiotic stress mechanisms.

Metabolic profile and nitrogen balance in llamas (Lama glama) fed with jipi quinua and barley hay, Viacha municipality - department of La PazAjata Avircata, Meliton 01 January 2006 (has links) (PDF)
This research was completed in Letanías, Viacha, La Paz, Bolivia, to determine the metabolic profile in blood plasma (total protein, glucose, urea, albumin, total lipids, creatinine, triglycerides, and cholesterol concentrations), live weight gain, and Nitrogen balance in adult llamas fed with 4 rations of barley and quinoa residue. Eight adult (4-5 year old) Q’ara type llamas were used in this study. Study llamas were trained to stay in metabolic cages with feces collection harnesses. Llamas were given one of the following feed rations: ration A (20% quinoa residue, 80% barley), ration B (40% quinoa residue, 60% barley), ration C (60% quinoa residue, 40% barley), and ration D (80% quinoa residue 20% barley). The results were protein concentration 7.44±0.39 g/dl; albumin 4.66±0.80 mg/dl; urea 13.87±3.70 mg/dl; creatinine 1.65±0.19 mg/dl; glucose 127.67±50.32 mg/dl; total lipids 318.2±144.14 mg/dl; triglycerides 39.35±13.49 mg/dl; cholesterol 53.85±13.53 mg/dl. Live weight gain was -0.0094±1.44 kg. Nitrogen balance was 0.610±0.0868 g/kg. According to the results of this research, metabolites in blood plasma are higher when compared to other research. Gain in body weight was negative in rations A and D and positive in rations B and C. This is attributed to a better equilibrium among energy levels and protein in these last rations. The nitrogen balance was positive for all four rations due to an adequate source of protein in the feed.
