“…After Flavr Savr tomato, the virusresistant 'Rainbow' papaya was approved for consumption by the USDA (Gonsalves 2006). Other genetically modified crops include pineapple and banana, wherein fruit quality, growth habit, and tolerance to abiotic stress were improved (Gonsalves 2006;Sreedharan et al 2013;Igarashi et al 2016;Yabor et al 2020). The ringspot virus-resistant papaya, plum-pox virus-resistant plum, non-browning apple, and the pink-colored Rose ´pineapple are currently among the few transgenic fruit crops approved for release and consumption in the US (Gonsalves 2006;Scorza et al 2012;Xu 2013;Gurin et al 2014;Young and Firoozabady 2010).…”

The advent of genome editing has opened new avenues for targeted trait enhancement in fruit, ornamental, industrial, and all specialty crops. In particular, CRISPR-based editing systems, derived from bacterial immune systems, have quickly become routinely used tools for research groups across the world seeking to edit plant genomes with a greater level of precision, higher efficiency, reduced off-target effects, and overall ease-of-use compared to ZFNs and TALENs. CRISPR systems have been applied successfully to a number of horticultural and industrial crops to enhance fruit ripening, increase stress tolerance, modify plant architecture, control the timing of flower development, and enhance the accumulation of desired metabolites, among other commercially-important traits. As editing technologies continue to

“…Globally, pineapple is one of most highly produced tropical fruits, and more than 10,000 km 2 of soil is dedicated to its cultivation [ 74 , 75 ]. The derived wastes (peel, core, crown, stem and leaves), which are generally eliminated in the course of processing, account for about 50% ( w / w ) of the total pineapple weight [ 37 ].…”

The worrying and constant increase in the quantities of food and beverage industry by-products and wastes is one of the main factors contributing to global environmental pollution. Since this is a direct consequence of continuous population growth, it is imperative to reduce waste production and keep it under control. Re-purposing agro-industrial wastes, giving them new life and new directions of use, is a good first step in this direction, and, in global food production, vegetables and fruits account for a significant percentage. In this paper, brewery waste, cocoa bean shells, banana and citrus peels and pineapple wastes are examined. These are sources of bioactive molecules such as polyphenols, whose regular intake in the human diet is related to the prevention of various diseases linked to oxidative stress. In order to recover such bioactive compounds using more sustainable methods than conventional extraction, innovative solutions have been evaluated in the past decades. Of particular interest is the use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and compressed solvents, associated with green techniques such as microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE), pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and pulsed-electric-field-assisted extraction (PEF). These novel techniques are gaining importance because, in most cases, they allow for optimizing the extraction yield, quality, costs and time.

“…[304] have used RNAi technology to develop coat protein (CP) mediated PRSV-resistant transgenic papaya for the USA and Taiwan. Other genetic characteristics of fruit quality traits, tree physiology and abiotic stress tolerance were altered through this transgenic approach for apple, banana, papaya and pineapple [305,306]. Fruit ripening can be delayed with delayed climacteric respiration and reduced synthesis of ethylene.…”

The breeding of tropical fruit trees for improving fruit traits is complicated, due to the long juvenile phase, generation cycle, parthenocarpy, polyploidy, polyembryony, heterozygosity and biotic and abiotic factors, as well as a lack of good genomic resources. Many molecular techniques have recently evolved to assist and hasten conventional breeding efforts. Molecular markers linked to fruit development and fruit quality traits such as fruit shape, size, texture, aroma, peel and pulp colour were identified in tropical fruit crops, facilitating Marker-assisted breeding (MAB). An increase in the availability of genome sequences of tropical fruits further aided in the discovery of SNP variants/Indels, QTLs and genes that can ascertain the genetic determinants of fruit characters. Through multi-omics approaches such as genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics and proteomics, the identification and quantification of transcripts, including non-coding RNAs, involved in sugar metabolism, fruit development and ripening, shelf life, and the biotic and abiotic stress that impacts fruit quality were made possible. Utilizing genomic assisted breeding methods such as genome wide association (GWAS), genomic selection (GS) and genetic modifications using CRISPR/Cas9 and transgenics has paved the way to studying gene function and developing cultivars with desirable fruit traits by overcoming long breeding cycles. Such comprehensive multi-omics approaches related to fruit characters in tropical fruits and their applications in breeding strategies and crop improvement are reviewed, discussed and presented here.
