Avaliação de características físico-químicas de frutos de duas espécies de pitaya

Abstract: Fruit physico-chemical characteristics of two species of pitayaThe objective of this study was to evaluate physical and chemical characteristics of the fruits of 21 accessions of two pitaya species, Hylocereus undatus and Selenicereus setaceus. The experiments were arranged in a completely randomized design with four replications. Each replication consisted of 3 fruits. The characteristics length, diameter, soluble solids, skin and pulp total mass were analyzed. Soluble solids were determined in the homogenize… Show more

“…The reduction in brightness in this study, from the 6th day postharvest, indicate the rapid change in the color of the petal, showing signs of aging. The luminosity is an important parameter of the color, because the lower its value, the darker the tissue (Lima et al, 2014), but this was not evidenced in the treatment with ethanol + boric acid. According to Moalem-Beno et al (1997), the carotenoids and the anthocyanins, the two largest classes of pigments responsible for color in flowers, change significantly during plant development and senescence.…”

“…Lima et al (2014) encontrou valores de diâmetro longitudinal variando entre 9,20 a 12,50 cm, diâmetro transversal entre 8,00 a 9,90 cm e massa fresca de 343,50 a 752,50 g para frutos de Hylocereus undatus de diferentes procedências. Os resultados desta pesquisa encontram-se dentro dos demonstrados pelos autores já citados, demonstrando uniformidade para as características físicas dos frutos, independente da região e condições adversas.…”

“…Apresentam ácidos graxos essenciais nas sementes do fruto, como ácido linoleico com 48% e ácido linolênico com 1,5%, apresentando em média 50% de óleo essencial (ARIFFIN et al, 2009) e ainda apresentam carboidratos como glicose, frutose e alguns oligossacarídeos que auxiliam na produção de probióticos (WICHIENCHOT; JATUPORNPIPAT e RASTALL, 2009). Essa planta se adapta a climas mais secos, temperatura ideal para sua produção deve ser maior que 18 o C com período de safra de dezembro a maio (LIMA et al, 2014) e é considerado um fruto não-climatérico, ao qual decresce sua qualidade durante a pós-colheita (CHIEN et al, 2007;LI et al, 2017).…”

“…Através da análise da Tabela 1 pode-se observar que os resultados encontrados para as amostras in natura foram muito próximos ao que a literatura reporta. Ramos et al (2008) verificaram um valor de 86,5% de umidade para o abacaxi, enquanto Lima et al (2012) reportaram 71,7 % para a banana, e Moreira et al(2013) 85,5% para a manga.…”
