The objective of this work was to study the influence of the drying temperature, infrared (IR) radiation assistance, and the Mylar™ film thickness during Physalis fruit purée drying by the Refractance Window™ (RW™) method. For this, a RW™ dryer layout with a regulated bath at working temperatures of 60, 75, and 90 • C, Mylar™ thicknesses of 0.19, 0.25, 0.30 mm and IR radiation of 250 W for assisting RW™ drying process was used. Experimental curves data were expressed in moisture ratio (MR) in order to obtain moisture effective diffusivities (non-assisted RW™: D eff = 2.7-10.1 × 10 −10 m 2 /s and IR-assisted RW™: D eff = 4.2-13.4 × 10 −10 m 2 /s) and further drying curves modeling (Page, Henderson-Pabis, Modified Henderson-Pabis, Two-Term, and Midilli-Kucuk models). The Midilli-Kucuk model obtained the best-fit quality on experimental curves regarding statistical tests applied (Coefficient of Determination (R 2 ), Chi-Square (χ 2 ) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Microscopical observations were carried out to study the RW™ drying conditions effect on microstructural changes of Physalis fruit purée. The main findings of this work indicated that the use of IR-assisted RW™ drying effectively accelerates the drying process, which achieved a decrease drying time around 60%. Thus, this combined RW™ process is strongly influenced by the working temperature and IR-power applied, and slightly by Mylar™ thickness.Foods 2020, 9, 343 2 of 18 water. This plastic film having the property to be able to transfer heat by conduction and by radiation, allows the food material to dry at moderate temperatures achieving usually shorter drying times. The RW™ method is attractive to the heat-sensitive food industry due to the high quality of the products obtained, and that the equipment is relatively cheap (one-third compared to a freeze-dryer). It also has the advantage that the operational cost of a dryer by the RW™ method is approximately half that of a freeze-dryer [3].Traditional drying technologies, such as hot-air convective drying, vacuum drying, microwave drying, freeze-drying, among others, aim to ensure that the food quality and stability are preserved during the storage period, being, at the same time, as efficient as possible. However, so as to fulfill efficiently the drying process, shortening operation times and enhancing product quality, as well as using combined drying technologies in which different sources of energy are involved, are becoming more and more current. In this sense, there is the possibility of assisting the different drying processes with several forms of energy that accelerate transfer of matter from the diverse feed sources. Infrared (IR) radiation assistance could be seen as a convenient and alternative method to combine with RW TM drying process of high quality fruit pulps or purées. Hence, when food materials are subjected to an electromagnetic field, the wave penetrates directly into the material, resulting in fast volumetric heating. These electromagnetic waves in IR radiation are displayed unde...

“…This plant is native to the Andean region of South America with Colombia being the main producer and exporter [2]. The economic value of Physalis in Colombia is linked to the high demand of fruits from mainly European countries [3,4]. Other exporters of Physalis include Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, Egypt, South Africa, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Madagascar, and Southeast Asian countries [5][6][7].…”

Plants of the genus Physalis are of economic interest because of their fleshy edible fruits with high nutritional value. Some species have high medicinal value with a long history of ethno-medicinal use to treat diverse diseases. There is therefore a need to correctly discriminate the different species of Physalis for proper utilization. Although most Physalis species have unique morphologies, their vegetative stages are identical, making it difficult to accurately identify them based on morphological characteristics. DNA barcoding has the potential to discriminate species accurately. In this study, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase large (rbcL) and internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) regions were used to discriminate Physalis species and to reveal their phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity. Physalis plant samples were collected from seven counties in Kenya based on the availability of the germplasm. The voucher specimens were identified using the botanical taxonomy method and were deposited in the University of Nairobi herbarium. Genomic DNA was isolated from leaf samples of 64 Physalis accessions and used for PCR amplification and the sequencing of rbcL and ITS2 barcode regions. The discriminatory ability of the barcodes was based on BLASTn comparison, phylogenetic reconstruction and cluster analysis, and the determination of inter- and intra-specific distances. The nucleotide polymorphism, genetic diversity and distance of the identified Physalis species were determined using DnaSP and MEGA 11.0 software. Species discrimination was more robust using ITS2 sequences. The species identified and discriminated by ITS2 sequences were Physalis purpurea, Physalis peruviana and Physalis cordata. The rbcL sequences were only able to identify Physalis to the genus level. There was high interspecific and low intraspecific divergence within the identified Physalis species based on ITS2 sequences. The ITS2 barcode is an ideal DNA barcode for use in the discrimination of species, as well as in genetic diversity studies of Physalis accessions in Kenya.

“…Cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.) is a fruit bush species from the Andean region of South America. It is of economic importance for Colombia due to the interest that international markets, mainly European countries, have shown in its fruits (Álvarez-Flórez et al, 2017;Cabrera et al, 2017). This fruit stands out for its flavor, color, and shape, as well as for its nutritional value (Valdenegro et al, 2012;Enciso-Rodríguez et al, 2013;Etzbach et al, 2018).…”

Screening of Different Physalis Genotypes as Potential Rootstocks or Parents Against Vascular Wilt Using Physiological Markers

et al. 2020

Cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.) is one of the most exported Andean fruits in Colombia. Vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. physali (FOph) has led to a reduction in crop areas in recent years. Therefore, the aim of this study was to select genotypes with resistance to vascular wilt that can be useful as rootstocks from a group of six Physalis genotypes (Physalis ixocarpa, Physalis floridana, and Physalis peruviana genotypes Colombia, Sudafrica, Peru, and Accession 62) using physiological variables such as maximum quantum efficiency of Photosystem II (Fv/Fm), leaf gas exchange properties [net photosynthesis rate (Pn) and stomatal conductance (g s)], and leaf water potential. An experiment was carried out under greenhouse conditions in which plants of the different Physalis materials were inoculated with the F. oxysporum f. sp. physali strain Map5 at a concentration of 1 × 10 6 conidia mL −1. Physiological and disease development variables were measured at 15, 23, and 31 days after inoculation (DAI). The results obtained showed that P. peruviana genotypes Colombia and Sudafrica showed greater susceptibility to the disease (disease severity index 3.8 and 3.6, respectively). Net photosynthesis rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (g s), water potential (fw), and Fv/Fm ratio were lower compared to non-inoculated plants. P. floridana and P. ixocarpa plants inoculated with F. oxysporum showed similar behavior to non-inoculated plants for the evaluated variables. In conclusion, the results obtained suggest that these two genotypes can be considered in breeding programs or as rootstock for the establishment of cape gooseberry crops in soils with the presence of the pathogen.
