Source-Separated Municipal Solid Waste Compost Application to Swiss Chard and Basil

Journal of Environment Quality, 2004
ABSTRACTA growth room experiment was conducted to evaluate the bioavailability of Cu, Mn, Zn, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, P, S, As, B, Cd, Co, Cr, Hg, Mo, Na, Ni, Pb, and Se from a sandy loam soil amended with source‐separated municipal solid waste (SSMSW) compost.

Leaf yield quality of Swiss chard Beta vulgaris spp. cicla as influenced by ammonium: nitrate Ratio and Organic Fertilizer

Natural and Engineering Sciences
The experiment was conducted to study the effect of NH4+:NO3- ratio and spraying with seaweed extract on the quality indicators of Swiss chard. Nitrate or ammonium fertilization was used alone at a concentration of 400 mg.

INFLUENCE OF CHLORIDE SALINITY ON CADMIUM UPTAKE BY SWISS CHARD

Soil Science, 1983
ABSTRACT The objective of the investigation was to determine the influence of chloride salinity on the bioavailability of cadmium in soil. The experiment consisted of treating a sandy loam soil with Cd(NO3)2 at two rates in combination with four rates of NaCl or CaCl2 and then assessing the availability of Cd in the soil with Swiss chard (Beta ...

Exploring the uptake, accumulation, and distribution of nitrate in Swiss chard and spinach and their impact on food safety and human health.

Food Chemistry
Greenhouse vegetable production is often associated with the excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers and a high rate of nitrate accumulation. We evaluated the uptake, translocation, and accumulation of nitrate in chard and spinach under greenhouse ...

Radiocaesium transfer from volcanic soils to Swiss chard, cabbage and sweet corn

Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2018
The root uptake of radiocaesium by different plant parts of Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L. var. cicla), cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata) and sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata) and the potential influence of K-fertilising on the transfer behaviour was studied in allophanic volcanic soils (umbric andosol and dystric fluvisol) in Chile ...

Swiss chard hypersensitivity: clinical and immunologic study.

Annals of allergy, 1991
Allergy to vegetables and fruits seems to be more prevalent in atopics, especially in birch pollen-sensitized individuals. We report a case of a grass pollen-sensitized woman, in whom the inhalation of vapor from boiling Swiss chard precipitated rhinoconjunctivitis and asthma.

Biosafety of Hybrids between Transgenic Virus-Resistant Sugar Beet and Swiss Chard

Ecological Applications, 2001
One important issue of biosafety research is whether gene flow from trans- genic crops to nontransgenic relatives causes unwanted effects. We carried out field trials with hybrids between transgenic sugar beets, and a close cultivated relative, Swiss chard. This hybrid also acts as a model for "weed beet" hybrids between sugar beet and wild/ weed beet (

Swiss chard: a salad crop for the space program.

Life support & biosphere science : international journal of earth space, 2003
Salad greens will be among the first crops grown on lunar or planetary space stations. Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important candidate salad crop because it is high yielding and rich in vitamins and minerals. Five Swiss chard cultivars were grown in the greenhouse under two light levels for 13 weeks to compare cumulative yields from weekly ...
