Carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.)
1989The carambola Averrhoa carambola L. is an evergreen fruit tree (Fig. 1) in the family Oxalidaceae. It is believed to have originated in southeast Asia, probably in Indonesia (Purseglove 1968), where it has been reported to occur in the wild state. The closely related bilimbi (Averrhoa bilimbi L.), however, is thought to be native to the Malay peninsula

Carotenoids of the fruit of Averrhoa carambola
Phytochemistry, 1983Abstract The carotenoids of the tropical fruit Averrhoa carambola were investigated and from most of them mass spectra were taken. The total carotenoid content was 22 μg/g fr. wt. The carotenoid pattern was uncommon, the main pigments were phytofluene (17%), ζ-carotene (25%), β-cryptoflavin (34%) and mutatoxanthin (14%).

Phytoextraction of Cd-contaminated soil by carambola (Averrhoa carambola) in field trials
Chemosphere, 2009Use of metal-accumulating woody species to extract metals from heavy metal contaminated soil has received more attention. While considerable studies have focused on the phytoextraction potential of willow (Salix spp.) and poplar (Populus spp.), similar information is rare for other woody species.

Dihydrochalcone C-glycosides from Averrhoa carambola leaves
Phytochemistry, 2020Ten undescribed dihydrochalcone C-glycosides, carambolasides R1‒R3, S1, S2, T1‒T3, 3-hydroxycarambolaside T1, and 3-hydroxycarambolaside P were isolated along with carambolasides I and P from the leaves of Averrhoa carambola L. (Oxalidaceae). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods.

Harvest Maturity Influences Fruit Quality of Carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.)
Journal of Horticultural Science & Technology, 2020Harvest maturity determines the shelf life and nutritional quality of fruits. The present study was planned to determine the effect of harvest maturity on fruit quality of carambola. Fruits of carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) cv. “Arkin” were harvested at five maturity stages, i.e., M1 (100% green), M2 (75% green and 25% yellow), M3 (50% green and 50%

PROCESSING AND QUALITY EVALUATION OF A CARAMBOLA DRINK (.AVERRHOA CARAMBOLA)
2001The objective of the study was to utilise carambola fruits in drinks and to investigate the quality changes on storage at 10 °C and 25 °C for 5 weeks. A survey was conducted by 125 questionnaires to guide the objectives of the research. Carambola drinks of 4 treatments (9 % and 12% sucrose with or without 3% orange juice) were processed with 0.2 ...

Phytotoxic Constituents of the Fruits of Averrhoa carambola
Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2015The agrochemical industry is continuously searching for phytotoxic compounds, including weedicides, herbicides,etc. The continuous use of synthetic phytotoxic compounds may affect nontarget organisms and also cause environmentalpollution problems due to retarded degradation, etc.

Enzymatic carotenoid cleavage in star fruit (Averrhoa carambola)
Phytochemistry, 2003This paper presents the first description of an enzyme fraction exhibiting carotenoid cleavage activity isolated from fruit skin of Averrhoa carambola. Partial purification of the enzyme could be achieved by acetone precipitation, ultrafiltration (300 kDa, 50 kDa), isoelectric focusing (pH 3-10) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel ...

Scientia Horticulturae, 1992
Abstract A technique for the clonal micropropagation of carambola is described. Multiple adventitious shoots were produced on root explants placed on woody plant medium or Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 2.0 mg l −1 6-benzylaminopourine and 0.2 mg l −1 naphthalene acetic acid. When these shoots were excised from the roots and placed on
