“…Additionally, tomatoes contain kaempferol, a dietary flavonoid that boosts antioxidant capacity and lowers indicators of lipid peroxidation (Al‐Numair et al., 2015 ). Due to its high concentration of lycopene and β‐carotene, tomato juice has been found to have hypoglycemic and antiatherogenic benefits in diabetic rats (Khalil et al., 2022 ). According to Esmaeilzadeh et al.…”

Throughout the world, the prevalence of metabolic diseases in general and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in particular is constantly growing, and sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) is not spared. The use of functional foods is a more practical option among the different approaches used in the management of T2DM owing to the fact that they are relatively less costly, safer, and more accessible. In addition to their low glycemic index just like foods currently used to manage diabetes, functional foods contain bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, dietary fibers, saponins, and peptides. They are so named because they have additional health advantages beyond their basic nutritional worth. Bioactive compounds can be found in a variety of SSA plant‐based foods, such as spices, fruits, vegetables, legumes, starchy foods, prepared foods, mixed foods, and prepared dishes. The goal of this review is to highlight some of the investigations into the effectiveness of local food and their antidiabetic mechanisms that have been studied in various SSA regions. Using the literature review as a basis, the authors state that SSA foods are rich in various bioactive compounds capable of regulating blood sugar through enhanced glucose tolerance, antioxidant effects, insulin sensitivity, and inhibition or activation of some key enzymes of the glucose metabolism that are linked to the prevention and management of T2DM. Many of the cited findings are preliminary, obtained from cell and preclinical studies, and therefore other studies need to be done to demonstrate the full potential of these foods to serve as bases for dietary guidelines.

Grafting facilitates the management of phytodiseases, especially of soils, but the growth and development of the grafted plant depend on the compatibility with rootstocks. The objective was to evaluate the graft union and survival, the growth characteristics, fruit biometrics, yield and physiological characteristics of the tomato plant ‘Santa Clara’ on five rootstocks. The study was conducted at the Pici Campus of the Federal University of Ceará in Fortaleza, Ceará state, Brazil. The seven treatments were tomato ‘Santa Clara’ ungrafted and self‐grafted, or grafted onto cherry tomato ‘Vermelho’, hybrid tomato ‘Guardiao’, eggplant ‘Comprida Roxa’, jiló ‘Comprido Grande Rio’ (Solanum gilo) and cocona (Solanum sessiliflorum). Cleft grafting was used. The growth characteristics evaluated were stem diameter (SD), plant height (PH), and number of commercial (NCF) and total (NTF) fruits. The biometric characteristics of the fruits (diameter‐FD, length‐FL and average mass‐AMF) and productive (commercial‐CFM and total‐TFM fruit mass) and yield of commercial (YCF) and total (YTF) fruits were estimated per hectare. Physiological evaluations were performed to obtain the internal concentration of CO2 (Ci), transpiration rate (E), stomatal conductance (Gs), liquid photosynthesis (A), ratio between internal CO2 and the environment (Ci/Ca) and carboxylation efficiency (A/Ci). The graft union and survival of S. lycopersicum plants was 100% at 10 days after grafting. The number of commercial and total fruits were higher in non‐grafted tomato plants. The FD of the plants was higher with rootstocks of the ‘Vermelho’ cherry tomato and ‘Guardião’ hybrid, the CFM and TFM with ungrafted, the AMF and TFM with ‘Vermelho’ cherry tomato and the YCF and YTF with ungrafted and grafting on the ‘Vermelho’ cherry tomato. The tomato plant ‘Santa Clara’ completed its development in rootstocks and, therefore, they are compatible with this plant. The production of tomato fruits was higher with grafting on the ‘Vermelho’ cherry tomato with diameter and productivity similar to those of the ungrafted plants, indicating that this tomato cultivar can be used as rootstock.

“…Tomato with its low calorie and low fat content, is characterized as a healthy vegetable with lycopene, β-carotene, niacin, vitamins A, B, C, and K, and its mineral substances, such as potassium, calcium, and iron (Willcox et al, 2010;Yahia and Brecht, 2012). It is very important for health, with its powerful antioxidant content (Khalil et al, 2022) such as vitamins A, C, and E, which help to reduce the risk of cancer. It is also a rich source of lycopene, which gained importance with the development and application of lycopene in food, medicine, cosmetics, and other fields (Xie et al, 2022), and consumption of tomatoes is effective in reducing the risk of cancer death (Mazidi et al, 2020).…”

In recent years, tomato breeding research, as in many vegetable species, has focused on improving the intrinsic quality of the fruit. To identify the superior lines in terms of biochemical properties, 20 early maturing tomato lines were evaluated. Yields of the lines used in this work ranged from 2.5 to 9.2 kg per plant, with average fruit weights between 86 and 246 g. Consequently, L* values for tomato fruit varied from 30.87 to 45.35, a* values from 8.36 to 21.48 and b* values from 15.28 to 42.17. The values of titratable acidity, pH, brix, total carotene, total xanthophyll, ascorbic acid, and lycopene in tomato fruits changed from 0.27 to 0.40%, from 3.75 to 4.95, from 2.60 to 6.30%, from 80.2 to 197.5 mg/100 g, from 115.3 to 256.6 mg/100 g, from 10.50 to 28.78 mg/100 g, and from 1.6 to 4.09 mg/100 g, respectively. The contents of soluble and reducing sugars ranged from 7.31 to 17.51 mg/g and 2.46 to 6.57 mg/g respectively. According to these values, the lines with the highest biochemical properties were L7, L17 and L3. This data could then be used as a genetic resource in breeding programmes for the development of new varieties.
