Effects of Season and GA3 Concentrations on Hylocereus undatus Flowering and Production

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy, 2016
Background: The exotic fruit market in Brazil has gained prestige and cultivation of pitaya is promising. But the cycle is limited throughout the year and its flowering by photoperiod. Methodology: The plant growth regulator use especially gibberellin can replace the need for long days in this sense, it was studied different application periods and ...

Chemical composition and DSC thermal properties of two species of Hylocereus cacti seed oil: Hylocereus undatus and Hylocereus polyrhizus [PDF]

open access: yesFood Chemistry, 2010
Two types of pitaya (Hylocereus cacti) seeds (Hylocereus undatus and Hylocereus polyrhizus) were investigated in this study. The fatty acid, phenolic, tocopherol, and sterol contents of the extracted seed oil were analysed. The results showed that the pitaya seeds contained a high amount of oil (18.33–28.37%).

Occurrence and Human Health Implications of Legacy Organochlorine Pesticides and Their Metabolites in Fruits and Vegetables of Bangladesh

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 359-373, April 2026.
Multiple OCP isomers and/or metabolites along with their parent compounds were detected in commonly consumed fruits and vegetables of Bangladesh, possibly attributed to both recently and historically applied OCPs. However, all the detected values were below 0.01 mg/kg, indicating no potential human health risks through dietary intake. ABSTRACT Globally,

Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus) Pollination in New Zealand: A Preliminary Report on Flower Visitors, Natural Pollen Deposition, and Artificial Pollination

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Dragon fruit (pitaya; Hylocereus undatus) is a promising, new high‐value crop in New Zealand. The large nocturnal flowers open for one night and close early in the morning the following day over a 3‐ to 6‐month long flowering period. In dragon fruit's native range, hawkmoths and bats are key nocturnal pollinators, and honey bees visit flowers during ...

Cloning and bioinformatics analysis of PDC genes from Hylocereus undatus [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
The cDNA of PDC1 and PDC2 were amplified from the seedling of Hylocereus undatus ‘Guangming 2’ by the technique of RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends). The PDC1 and PDC2 had a length of 1191bp and 2046 bp, and an open reading frame that encoded a protein of 351 and 604 amino acids, respectively.

Integrated Multidimensional Evaluation of Postharvest Quality and Physiopathologies in Seasonal Tropical Fruits: Linking Physicochemical, Sensorial, and Economic Loss Parameters

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Tropical regions exhibit remarkable environmental variability, resulting in high biodiversity and numerous fruit species with considerable nutritional and commercial potential. Despite this richness, many tropical fruits remain underexplored, particularly regarding their postharvest quality, phytosanitary status, and consumer perception.
