Chenopodium album
''Chenopodium album'' is a fast-growing weedy annual plant in the genus ''Chenopodium''.
Though cultivated in some regions, the plant is elsewhere considered a weed. Common names include lamb's quarters, melde, goosefoot and fat-hen, though the latter two are also applied to other species of the genus ''Chenopodium'', for which reason it is often distinguished as white goosefoot.〔BSBI: (Database of names (xls file) )〕〔Flora of NW Europe: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕〔〔 It is sometimes also called pigweed, however, pigweed is also a name for a few weeds in the family Amaranthaceae,:〔 it is for example used for the redroot pigweed (''Amaranthus albus'').
''Chenopodium album'' is extensively cultivated and consumed in Northern India as a food crop,〔"Handbook of Herbs Cultivation and Processing", By Niir Board, p. 146〕 and in English texts it may be called by its Hindi name ''bathua'' or ''bathuwa'' (बथुआ) (Marathi:चाकवत). It is called Pappukura in Telugu, Paruppukkirai in Tamil, Kaduoma in Kannada, Vastuccira in Malayalam, and Chakvit in Konkani.
==Distribution==
Its native range is obscure due to extensive cultivation,〔Germplasm Resources Information Network: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 but includes most of Europe,〔Flora Europaea: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 from where Linnaeus described the species in 1753.〔Linnaeus, C. (1753). ''Species Plantarum'' 1: 219. (Facsimile ).〕 Plants native in eastern Asia are included under ''C. album'', but often differ from European specimens.〔Flora of China: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 It is widely introduced elsewhere, e.g. Africa,〔African Flowering Plants Database: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 Australasia,〔Australian Plant Name Index: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 North America,〔Flora of North America: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 and Oceania,〔Pacific Island Ecosystems at Risk: (''Chenopodium album'' )〕 and now occurs almost everywhere in soils rich in nitrogen, especially on wasteland.
