“…The results are above the acceptable minimum implying that the fruits are suitable for the fresh market. The soluble solids obtained in this study do not differ from other studies in the literature that such analysis were performed in the harvest day (Vargas et al, 2006;Bodelón et al, 2010).…”

“…These values for the parameter L* are similar to the ones found in the literature, characteristic of fresh strawberries. Bodelón et al (2010) found values between 28.52 and 37.06 for this external color parameter for the cultivar Camarosa. Reis et al (2008) working with Oso Grande cultivar strawberries observed mean value of 29.14 for the parameter L*.…”

Strawberry crop is part of the world market as an important alternative to agricultural diversification. The mineral nutrition is closely related to production quality, but there are some questions on plant nutrition and strawberry fruit quality relationship. Thus, studies related to strawberry plants mineral nutrition contribute to a better understanding about this crop. In this sense, the current study aimed to evaluate the effects of nitrogen and potassium fertigation in strawberry crop under field conditions on chemical properties and fruit external color rates. The experiment was carried out at UFLA, Lavras, MG, Brazil, using a randomized blocks experimental design, replicated three times, in a 4x4 factorial scheme. Four nitrogen doses (100, 200, 300 and 400 kg ha -1 ) and four potassium doses (150, 300, 450 and 600 kg ha -1 of K 2 O) were applied using urea and potassium chloride as respectively sources of nutrients. Strawberry plants from cultivar Aromas were used. Our results shown that strawberry fruit chemical properties and fruit external color rates are influenced by both, nitrogen and potassium fertigation, varying according to the studied property.Key words: Fragaria x ananassa Duch., mineral nutrition, fertilization, fruit quality.

“…The amount of free myo-inositol detected here was significantly higher than that quantified in Fragaria x ananassa cv. Camarosa (Bodelón et al 2010) or in Fragaria vesca from the first inflorescence (Blanch et al 2012). Moreover, when comparing carbohydrates during Camarosa growth in two geoclimatic conditions, the only soluble carbohydrate that displayed significant differences between the two locations was inositol (Macías-Rodríguez et al 2002).…”

It has been recognized that high CO 2 concentrations maintain the freshness of strawberries, reducing weight loss and the incidence of decay. Since strawberries have high tolerance threshold to CO 2 , it is of interest to know what changes occur in cellular water distribution when the threshold is reached or exceeded. Moreover, as strawberries are prone to producing exudate during storage at low temperatures, application of technologies improving water retention is needed. Changes in bound water content were analyzed in relation to simple sugars, polyols, and fructooligosaccharides (FOS) in Fragaria vesca stored at low temperature (0°C) in the presence of 0, 20, or 40 % CO 2 . Fruits were analyzed at the end of a 3-day treatment and after transfer to air for one additional day. Unfavorable storage conditions were associated with a decrease in the levels of bound water and in that of 1-kestose and myoinositol. However, the 1-kestose and myo-inositol content was enhanced when 40 % CO 2 -treated strawberries were transferred to air at the same time as an increase in bound water content and a restoration of intracellular water took place. The ability of the fruit to modulate the accumulation of these compounds, and by extension their water binding strength, in conjunction with the pool of the bound water fraction, appears to be a mechanism associated with the maintenance of cellular structural integrity. Variation in the percentage of air space and in the weight loss rate produced by enhancing the CO 2 treatment during storage at 0°C was also analyzed.

“…Proanthocyanidins, condensed tannins, can be also found in high concentrations in berries, although they are usually underestimated due to the difficulties associated with extraction, separation and analysis methodologies (Aaby et al, 2012). 4 There are many reports on the phenolic compounds of Fragaria x ananassa variety (Aaby et al, 2012;Andersen et al, 2004;Bodelón et al, 2010;Bordonaba et al, 2011;Fossen et al, 2004;Holzwarth et al, 2012;Lopes da Silva et al, 2007;Pinto et al, 2008;Tarola et al, 2013;Theocharis and Andlauer, 2013), but only a few studies are available regarding phenolic composition of F. vesca fruits (Bubba et al, 2012;Gasperotti et al, 2013;Sun et al, 2014;Zheng et al, 2007).…”

The phenolic profile of hydromethanolic extracts, infusions and decoctions of commercial and wild samples of Fragaria vesca (wild strawberry) roots was obtained by HPLC-DAD/ESI-MS, and further correlated with their antioxidant properties. Commercial and wild samples showed similarities in terms of flavan-3-ols (TF3O), with catechin derivatives, mainly procyanidins, as major compounds in both samples. The commercial sample presented ellagic acid glycosides, whereas the wild sample presented flavonols (TF) and dihydroflavonols (TdhF, taxifolin derivatives). The infusion of wild sample gave the highest content of total phenolic compounds (TPC), DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) scavenging activity, reducing power and TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) inhibition. The antioxidant capacity (mainly β-carotene bleaching and TBARS inhibition) observed for the wild sample is correlated with TF3O, TF and TPC. Overall, the high antioxidant potential of F. vesca roots was demonstrated and could be achieved directly by consumption of infusions/decoctions or by incorporating hydromethanolic extracts in antioxidant formulations.
