Phenolic Profile and Biological Activities of the Pepino (Solanum muricatum) Fruit and Its Wild Relative S. caripense.
The pepino (Solanum muricatum) is an edible and juicy fruit native to the Andean region which is becoming increasingly important. However, little information is available on its phenolic composition and bioactive properties. Four pepino varieties (37-A, El Camino, Puzol, and Valencia) and one accession (E-7) of its close wild relative S. caripense were characterized by HPLC-DAD-MS(n)/ESI. Twent...
متن کاملPepino (Solanum muricatum) planting increased diversity and abundance of bacterial communities in karst area
Soil nutrients and microbial communities are the two key factors in revegetation of barren environments. Ecological stoichiometry plays an important role in ecosystem function and limitation, but the relationships between above- and belowground stoichiometry and the bacterial communities in a typical karst region are poorly understood. We used pepino (Solanum muricatum) to examine the stoichiom...
متن کامل‘Valencia’: A New Pepino (Solanum muricatum) Cultivar with Improved Fruit Quality
Pepino (Solanum muricatum Aiton), also known as melon-pear, is a vegetatively propagated vegetable crop grown for its juicy and aromatic fruit. Great variation in fruit weight, shape, and color can be found among cultivars of pepino (Anderson et al., 1996; Heiser, 1985). Despite being an important crop in Pre-Columbian times in the Andean region, it has not achieved the same relevance as other ...
متن کاملAqueous Extract from Pepino (Solanum muricatum Ait.) Attenuated Hyperlipidemia and Cardiac Oxidative Stress in Diabetic Mice
This study examined the lipid-lowering and cardiac protective effects of aqueous extract of pepino (Solanum muricatum Ait.) in type 2 diabetic mice. Pepino at 1, 2, or 5% was supplied for 8 weeks. Results showed that pepino significantly decreased water intake and epididymal fat pad weight in diabetic mice (P < 0.05). Pepino treatments also significantly reduced plasma glucose and insulin level...
متن کاملThe kind of pollination and ability to parthenocarpy of pepino (Solanum muricatum Ait.)
The objective of the research was to assess a grade of parthenocarpic fruit and fruitsetting following cross-pollination and self-pollination in pepino plants (Solanum muricatum Ait.). An experiment with six pepino clones of different origin was set up in glasshouse conditions. Experimental clones were subjected to the following treatments: self-pollination, cross-pollination, and emasculation ...
