General aspects of physalis cultivation

Abstract: The Physalis peruviana L. is an exotic fruit that belongs to the Solanaceae family with recent production in Brazil. This is presented as an alternative production with nutritional potential and economic value. The cape gooseberry plant has a high added value that can be used from its root to the fruit itself. The roots and leaves are rich in medicinal properties that are used in pharmacology. The fruit is sweet and have good content of vitamins A, C, iron, phosphorus and fi ber, often used in making jellies, … Show more

“…Dur fruits fall into class "B". According to Muniz et al (2014), larger diameter fruits produced in Pelotas-RS (Brazil), fit into this class. Importantly, larger fruits may be more attractive for fresh consumption, since the smaller fruits, that are less accepted, are often intended for processing.…”

“…There are several methods to establish the most appropriate physalis harvest time, however, the coloration is the characteristic most frequently used by agricultural producers and dealers. In post-harvest handling, particular attention should be paid to color, firmness and organoleptic characteristics of the fruit (Muniz et al, 2014).…”

“…Belonging to the family Solanaceae these species are characterized by a permanent and inflated calyx that surrounds and protects the fruit against herbivores and weather. Among the many species of the genus, some have potential for agronomic exploitation due to their nutritional and medicinal compounds, known for some time in popular culture and, more recently, through studies by researchers from several institutions (Silva et al, Villa, Barp, Rotili, & Stumm, 2013;Muniz et al, 2014).…”
