“…Leterme et al [20] determined that the mineral composition of P. peruviana was Ca (23 mg/100g), Mg (19 mg/100g), Fe (0.09 mg/100g), and Zn (0.28 mg/100g). In addition, Rodrigues et al [21] reported that the mineral content in P. peruviana fruit consumed from Brazil was Ca (9.00 mg/100g), Fe (1.47 mg/100g), Mg (34.70 mg/100g), Cu (0.28 mg/100g). and Zn (0.49 mg/100g).…”

ÖzetAmaç: Antioksidan aktivite gösteren ve eser elementlerin gerekli miktarları-nı içeren tıbbi gıdaların diyetle alınması, iyi bir sağlıklı yaşam sürdürmek için önemlidir. Çalışmamızda, Kayseri'de marketlerde satılan Altınçilek (Physalis peruviana L.) meyvesinin antioksidan kapasitesinin ve metal içeriğinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: P. peruviana meyvesinin antioksidan kapasitesi, 2,2-difenil-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) serbest radikal süpürme testi ile belirlenmiştir. Meyvenin metanol (MeOH) ekstresinin DPPH serbest radikalini temizleme kapasitesi, referans olarak askorbik asit, gallik asit ve bütillen-dirilmiş hidroksitoluen (BHT) gibi bilinen antioksidanlarla karşılaştırılmıştır. P. peruviana meyvesinin metal içeriği atomik absorpsiyon spektrometresi (AAS) kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Bulgular: P. peruviana meyve ekstresinin DPPH serbest radikal temizleme aktivitesinin olduğu, fakat antioksidan kapasitesinin standart maddelerden daha düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir. P. peruviana, askorbik asit, gallik asit ve BHT'nin % 50 inhibitör konsantrasyon (IC 50 ) değer-leri sırası ile 32 mg/ml, 3.8 mg/ml, 3.51 mg/ml ve 1.21 mg/ml olarak belirlenmiştir. AAS ile yapılan analizler sonucu, meyvenin eser element yönünden zengin içeriğe sahip iken ağır metal içeriğinin az miktarda veya hiç olmadı-ğı gözlenmiştir. Tartışma: Bu sonuçlar, P. peruviana meyvesinin doğal kaynaklı potansiyel bir antioksidan ve eser element kaynağı olduğunu göstermektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler Eser Elementler; Physalis; Antioksidan EtkiAbstract Aim: The dietary intake of medicinal food with antioxidant activity and required amounts of trace elements is important to pursue good healthy life. In our study, we aimed to determine the antioxidant capacity and metal content of goldenberry (Physalis peruviana L.) fruit sold in markets in Kayseri. Material and Method: The antioxidant capacity of P. peruviana fruit was determined by the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay. The DPPH radical scavenger capacity of the methanol extract of fruit was compared with known antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, gallic acid, and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) as references. The metal content of P. peruviana fruit was measured by using atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS). Results: The fruit of P. peruviana was found to possess DPPH free radical scavenging activity but the antioxidant capacity was lower than the standard substances. Inhibitory concentration 50% (IC 50 ) values of P. peruviana, ascorbic acid, gallic acid, and BHT were determined as 32 mg/ml, 3.8 mg/ml, 3.51 mg/ ml, and 1.21 mg/ml, respectively. As a result of the analysis by AAS, it was observed that P. peruviana fruit contented plentiful trace elements and the content of heavy metal was small amount or not detected. Discussion: These observations suggest that the fruit of P. peruviana has a potential source of antioxidant and trace elements of natural origin.

“…In Brazil, is popular in the Northern and Northeastern regions while in Southern and Southeastern it has a still recent cultivation (RODRIGUES et al 2009), which is expanding, particularly in the Rio Grande do Sul State where the plant can be exploited by small-scale producers (MUNIZ et al, 2014). The world's largest production of cape gooseberry occurs in Colombia, a country that suffers with salinity problems in about 600,000ha of its agricultural area (MIRANDA et al, 2014).…”

Salt stress and exogenous silicon influence physiological and anatomical features of in vitro-grown cape gooseberry

Salt stress is one of several major abiotic stresses that affect plant growth and development, and there are many evidences that silicon can ameliorate the injuries caused by high salinity. This study presents the results of an assay concerning: (1) the effect of in vitro NaCl-induced salt stress in cape gooseberry plants and (2) the possible mitigating effect of silicon in saline conditions. For that, nodal segments were inoculated in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium under salinity (0.5 and 1.0% NaCl) with different silicic acid concentrations (0, 0.5 and 1.0g L-1). Phytotechnical characteristics, photosynthetic pigments content, and leaf anatomy were evaluated after 30 days. Shoot length, root length, number of leaves and buds, fresh and dry weight, pigment content, stomatal density and leaf blade thickness were drastically reduced by increased salt level. The supply of silicon (1.0g L-1) has successfully mitigated the effect of salinity at 0.5% NaCl for chlorophyll, carotenoids, stomatal density and leaf blade thickness. When salt stress was about 1.0%, Si was not effective anymore. In conclusion, we affirmed that, in in vitro conditions, salt stress is harmful for cape gooseberry plants and the addition of silicon showed effective in mitigating the saline effects of some features.

Present paper reports the chemical constituents in the fatty acids obtained from the whole plant of diploid and tetraploid Physalis angulata Linn. collected from hot desert areas of Rajasthan. The fatty acid analysis was carried out by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID). Meiotic studies confirm the ploidy level of the plant. Diploid (n = 12) cytotype is reported from Udaipur district and tetraploid (n = 24) cytotype from Sri Ganganagar. There is a considerable difference in the fatty acid constituents in the cytotypes. Major constituents of fatty acids are Oleic acid (24.93%, 2x; 18.71%, 4x); capric acid (13.4%, 2x; 0.14%, 4x); Palmitic acid (6.966%, 2x; 12.38%, 4x); Linoleic acid (5.5%, 2x; 9.76%, 4x) and Linolenic acid (6%, 2x; 11.67%, 4x). The main objective of the object work was to compare the fatty acid composition within two cytotypes. Such analysis of plants is very important on commercial level for the productions of cosmetic and has great interest in pharmaceutical companies for the production of drugs.
