Nutritional potential of a novel sea asparagus, Salicornia neei Lag., for human and animal diets

The mineral profile and nutritional value of a novel variety of the Brazilian sea asparagus, Salicornia neei Lag., was characterized for feeding humans and animals using spectrophotometry. Plants of the F4 progeny of the purebred variety named BTH1 cultivated with saline shrimp farm effluent have hi...
