“…The carotenoid content in plants depends on, among other factors, the genetic variety, ripening stage, post-harvest storage, and processing (Llorente, Garcia, Stange, & Concepcion, 2017, Matias et al, 2016a. Matias et al (2016b) noted that the concentration of total carotenoid contents accounted for the yellow coloration of the pulp and Faraoni, Ramos, Stringheta, and Laureano (2008) mentioned that in the pulp and by-products, the color, besides influencing quality, is an important parameter used for the quality control of these products.…”

The production of compact plants, which are slightly lacking in vigor and as productive as conventionally sized plants, is a trend in fruit growing. The objective of this study was to evaluate the vegetative performance and fruit quality of Gulfblaze and Reubennel plums intergrafted into two peach genotypes (UFV 186 and UFV 286). The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design using a 3x2 factorial arrangement (interstocks x cultivar) with four replications and one plant per plot. The non-intergrafted treatment was considered the control. Ten fruits were collected per plot for physical and chemical analyses. The evaluations were performed in the years 2014 and 2015. The interstock UFV 286 produced Gulfblaze trees with lower height in the two years of evaluation. When using the UFV 286 interstock, the trunk diameters were 50.2% smaller in Gulfblaze and 44.25% smaller in Reubennel than the control cultivars. Intergrafting had no influence on the fruit mass of Reubennel. In general, the peach genotypes UFV 186 and UFV 286 can be recommended as interstocks for reducing plant size in the plums studied. Intergrafting had no effect on fruit quality of Reubennel plums.

“…The need for reliable data about carotenoids in foods is widely recognized in various fields of study. The factors that make this analysis difficult include the large number of carotenoids naturally existing, the qualitative and quantitative variation of these foods, the little amount of pro-vitamin A carotenoids, its varied biopotency and the fact of the carotenoids are extremely unsaturated molecules, providing isomerisation processes, oxidation and degradation during the analysis (Matias et al, 2016). According Silva, Cremasco, Matias, Silva, and Bruckner (2014), the levels of total carotenoids concentration characterizes the yellow coloration of the pulp and in accordance with Faraoni, Ramos, and Stringheta (2008), in the pulp and products produced on the basis of fruit pulp, the color is an important parameter used in quality control of these products.…”

“…The high instability of vitamins and pro-vitamins, during the ripening of fruits can result in significant changes in the qualitative and quantitative composition of some nutrients (Matias et al, 2016). According to Silva et al (2014) during the fruits ripening it may occur nutrient losses depending on the environmental conditions.…”

The physical and chemical characteristics of the fruits influence the consumer acceptance. The objective of this study was to perform the physical, physico-chemical and chemical characterization of fruits of accessions of bushy cashew (Anacardium humile A. St.-Hil.) (cashew nut and cashew apple) in a germplasm bank located in southwest of the state of Goiás, in Brazil, aiming at the selection of superior accessions, in order to facilitate the initiation of a program to encourage the production and consumption, for provide information for breeding programs and the specie preservation. This research study was conducted at the Laboratory of genetics and molecular biology with material collected in the Experimental Station of the Federal University of Jataí, within the biological ex situ collection of Anacardium humile, in the field of genetic resources. In the harvest of 2016, within this collection, they were evaluated accesses for the characteristics of the cashew apple: length, diameter of base, apex diameter, weight, instrumental coloration of the epidermis and pulp, titratable acidity (citric acid), vitamin C content (ascorbic acid) and carotenoid content; cashew nut were evaluated: length, width, thickness and weight. The results were submitted to descriptive analysis, obtaining average, minimum, maximum and variation coefficient and the correlation between the variables, testing the significance by the t test. Most of the accesses showed high CV for most of the variables, demonstrating high heterogeneity of the observed values. Cashew apples have high levels of vitamin C and carotenoids, indicating the nutritional potential of the specie.

“…The quality attributes that have greater relevance in fruits are: color, firmness, soluble solids content, acidity and sugars: acids ratio (MATIAS et al, 2017;MATIAS et al, 2016;SILVA et al, 2016). Fischer et al (2012a) reported that high quality fruits require an adequate relationship between leaves and fruits.…”

Quality of peach fruits Jarillo cv. (Prunus persica L.) in Pamplona, Colombia

2018

The aim of this study was to characterize the quality of peach fruits Jarillo cv., produced under the conditions of altitude tropical climate in three locations: Pamplona, Chitagá and Pamplonita, in Northern Santander, Colombia. Ten trees were sampled by the conditioned latin hypercube method and eight growing fruits with physiological state of maturity were selected. By means of a profile analysis, the hypotheses of parallelism, coincidence and horizontality of quality variables in the complete measurement interval were tested, and in some segments of the interval, some patterns from the graphic point of view were found. A radial diagram was made to study the development of fruit color at each thermal level. When the quotient between longitudinal diameter and equatorial diameter tends to 1 to the left, the highest weight values are reached, highlighting the lowest elevation level, with weights around 150 g. The profile analysis showed, regarding quality variables, that there was a significant interaction between evaluation time and altitude level. The results show that the prevailing climatic conditions affect the physicochemical characteristics of fruits during the growth process until maturation.
