Comparative analysis of pomological and phytochemical characteristics in white‐ and red‐fleshed pitaya (Hylocereus spp.), with molecular docking insights into key bioactive compounds

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cacti, including pitaya (Hylocereus spp.), are rich in antioxidants that will undoubtedly gain importance under ongoing climate change as water resources decline. Yet the molecular basis linking composition to antioxidant function remains incompletely defined. We compared white‐fleshed H. undatus and red‐fleshed H. polyrhizus across
