Agrodiversity of Hylocereus undatus in Maya Homegardens: Management and Genetic Variability

Journal of Ethnobiology, 2019
Homegardens are reservoirs of genetic resources. When native plant populations are compromised, traditional management of homegardens can be an effective means of conserving species and enhancing food security. Hylocereus undatus (dragonfruit) is a key species in homegardens but is rarely found in wild populations in the Yucatan. We analyzed management

Microvascular protective activity in rabbits of triterpenes from Hylocereus undatus

Journal of Natural Medicines, 2007
Two new pentacyclic triterpene taraxast-20-ene-3α-ol (1) and taraxast-12,20(30)-dien-3α-ol (2) were isolated from chloroform extract of leaves of Hylocereus undatus. These triterpenes showed protective activity against the increase of skin vascular permeability in rabbits.

Biotransformation of Carvone by Hylocereus undatus Shoots

Chemistry & Biodiversity
ABSTRACTThe aim of the study was to assess the potential of in vitro cultures of Hylocereus undatus (pitaya; dragon fruit) to biotransform carvone and determine the products. Pitaya plants were used for their rich enzymatic system capable of complex biochemical reactions. Carvone enantiomers were chosen as model compounds.

Wound healing properties of Hylocereus undatus on diabetic rats

Phytotherapy Research, 2005
AbstractAqueous extracts of leaves, rind, fruit pulp and flowers of Hylocereus undatus were studied for their wound healing properties. Wound healing effects were studied on incision (skin breaking strength), excision (percent wound contraction) and the nature of wound granulation tissues, which were removed on day 7 and the collagen, hexosamine, total

Positive effect of shade and vermicompost application in the growth of pitahaya (Hylocereus ocamponis and Hylocereus undatus)

Journal of the Professional Association for Cactus Development
Pitahaya (Hylocereus spp.) is a cactus of horticultural importance for its edible fruits. There is little information about the response of these plants to shading and fertilization conditions, which can limit pitahaya growth. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of shade (no shade, 35, and 50 % shade) and the application of ...
