“…The fruit peel extract of ‘Fuji’ contained high levels of carbohydrate including glucose and sorbitol, and was significantly differentiated from ‘Red Delicious’ and ‘Granny Smith’ which contain high levels of unsaturated fatty acids (oleic and linoleic acid). Spatial distribution of sugars and organic acids between fruit layers has been elucidated in a recent study on metabolic profiling of apple fruit ( Cebulj et al, 2017 ). The browning of apple fruits during storage renders them unmarketable, thus exerting an adverse impact on the apple industry.…”

Post-genomics era has witnessed the development of cutting-edge technologies that have offered cost-efficient and high-throughput ways for molecular characterization of the function of a cell or organism. Large-scale metabolite profiling assays have allowed researchers to access the global data sets of metabolites and the corresponding metabolic pathways in an unprecedented way. Recent efforts in metabolomics have been directed to improve the quality along with a major focus on yield related traits. Importantly, an integration of metabolomics with other approaches such as quantitative genetics, transcriptomics and genetic modification has established its immense relevance to plant improvement. An effective combination of these modern approaches guides researchers to pinpoint the functional gene(s) and the characterization of massive metabolites, in order to prioritize the candidate genes for downstream analyses and ultimately, offering trait specific markers to improve commercially important traits. This in turn will improve the ability of a plant breeder by allowing him to make more informed decisions. Given this, the present review captures the significant leads gained in the past decade in the field of plant metabolomics accompanied by a brief discussion on the current contribution and the future scope of metabolomics to accelerate plant improvement.

“…Metabolomic studies have also afforded greater insights in fruit biology specially related to ripening and quality in tomato Upadhyaya et al 2017;Perez-Fons et al 2014;Quadrana et al 2014;Di Paola;Naranjo et al 2016), apple (Cebulj et al 2017;Hatoum et al 2014Hatoum et al , 2016, kiwifruit (Nardozza et al 2013;Ainalidou et al 2016), orange (Pan et al 2012), grape (Domingos et al 2016;Son et al 2009;Cuadros-Inostroza et al 2010;Flamini et al 2015), pear (Oikawa et al 2015) and strawberry (Mikulic-Petkovsek et al 2013;Nagpala et al 2016). Metabolite profiling coupled with Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) allowed the identification of 44 SNP loci associated to 19 metabolic traits and provided candidate genes involved in the genetic architecture of tomato fruit metabolic traits (Sauvage et al 2014).…”

Background Until recently, plant metabolomics have provided a deep understanding on the metabolic regulation in individual plants as experimental units. The application of these techniques to agricultural systems subjected to more complex interactions is a step towards the implementation of translational metabolomics in crop breeding. Aim of Review We present here a review paper discussing advances in the knowledge reached in the last years derived from the application of metabolomic techniques that evolved from biomarker discovery to improve crop yield and quality. Key Scientific Concepts of Review Translational metabolomics applied to crop breeding programs.

“…Undoubtedly, the recycling of these residues as source of high-added value products would make their management much more profitable and environmental friendly. 7 As far as the major fraction of bioactive compounds is retained in the residue from the standard processes of extraction of apple juice, 3,8 apple wastes could potentially be a good feedstock for recovering multifunctional healthy products. 9,10 Actually, biorefinery processes are attracting much interest for obtaining polyphenols with antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic and cardiovascular-protective properties for food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications.…”

The implementation of sustainable strategies based on the integral valorisation of residues is the most efficient way to achieve a profitable circular economy. This comprehensive study highlights the potential of apple waste from juice and cider production as precursor of porous carbons and provides guidelines to achieve a wide spectrum of physico-chemical properties. Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of apple bagasse is proposed as a feasible integrated process with zero waste that allows stabilizing this highly pollutant residue in the form of a carbon-enriched solid while extracting valuable compounds in aqueous phase. The liquid fraction resulting from HTC at 200 °C contains high total phenolic contents and antioxidant activity, the major products being catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene
