Abstract: Bathua (Chenopodium album L.) is an important underutilized leafy vegetable belongs to family Chenopodiaceae. Now days it has gained special popularity in India and also in different parts of world mainly due to its high nutritional composition. In the present study present study 24 bathua genotypes were analysed for the anti-nutritional composition viz., Oxalates, nitrates, total phenols using standard methods. The results of the study revealed that the oxalate content ranged from 327.60 mg/100g to 493.50mg/100g. The highest oxalate content present in the genotype NIC-22506 (493.50mg/100g) where has minimum was reported in the genotype HUB – 7(327.60 mg/100g). The nitrate content ranged between 236.17 mg/100g to 337.36 mg/100g. The genotype HUB – 2shows higher nitrate contenti.e.337.36 mg/100g, where has lowest in HUB-7 (236.17 mg/100g). The total phenol content in bathua genotypes ranged between 226.87 mg/100g to 294.96 mg/100g. IC-109249 (294.96 mg/100g) shows maximum phenol content followed by lowest was in HUB-7 (226.87mg/100g).
