Ethnobotany of the Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense) and its relatives

Economic Botany, 1985
One of my former students, who happens to be here tonight, some time ago suggested that instead of giving one of my interesting, humorous and entertaining talks I should use the occasion to say something significant, if not profound. That was a difficult assignment, but I did give it some consideration. I thought of speaking on the food problems of the

Quality and bioaccessibility of antioxidants of bread enriched with naranjilla (solanum quitoense) fruit

Nutrition & Food Science, 2021
Purpose The purpose of this paper was to develop a loaf bread enriched with naranjilla (lulo) fruit (shells, seeds and pulp) and determine the technical quality, sensory acceptability and bioavailability (by in vitro digestion) of antioxidant components. Design/methodology/approach Loaf bread was prepared by using a no-time bread-making process. The

IPM Packages for Naranjilla: Sustainable Production in an Environmentally Fragile Region

2016
In Ecuador’s Andean foothills, many colonists have planted naranjilla (Solanum quitoense), a perennial shrub and member of the section Lasiocarpa whose fruit is used to make a widely consumed juice. Naranjilla is highly profitable for small-scale farmers, representing one of the few economically profitable land uses in these environmentally vulnerable ...

Seed Transmission of Fusarium oxysporum in Common Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense) in Ecuador

Plant Health Progress, 2002
Results indicate that F. oxysporum is seedborne in common naranjilla, which is probably responsible for the rapid spread of naranjilla vascular wilt (NVW) in Ecuador. The production and use of disease-free seed should aid in preventing the introduction of the pathogen into new production areas as well as reduce disease spread in established production

The Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense), The Cocona (Solanum sessiliflorum) and Their Hybrid

1993
The Solanaceae has been one of the more important families in providing useful plants for humankind. By far the greatest number of these comes from tropical America, white potatoes, tomatoes and chili peppers being the best known. In recent years the fruits of two others, the tree tomato (Cyphomandra betacea) and the pepino (Solanum muricatum) have ...

Biology of Neoleucinodes elegantalis (Guenée 1854) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae): pest of economic importance of naranjilla, an Amazonian fruit of Ecuador

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 2020
The fruit borer, Neoleucinodes elegantalis (Guenee 1854) is the main pest infesting naranjilla crop (Solanum quitoense) in Ecuador, causing up to 70% loss of production. This research describes the biology of this insect in a laboratory environment simulating the subtropical environment of the Amazonian Andes (average temperature of 24 ± 1 °C and ...

Viability of Seed from Interspecific Crosses with Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense)¹

Crop Science, 1970
Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense Lam.) lacks several of the agronomically desirable traits possessed by the less economically important S. hirsutissimum Stanley, S. hirtum Vahl, S. tequilense Gray, and S. topiro Humb. & Bonpl. These five species, according to routine cytological checks, showed a common somatic chromosome number (2n=2x=24), medium to ...

Vascular Wilt of Common Naranjilla (Solanum quitoense) Caused by Fusarium oxysporum in Ecuador

Plant Health Progress, 2001
Farmers have generally abandoned production of “common naranjilla” in many areas mainly due to uncontrollable epidemics of an apparent vascular wilt disease. Naranjilla vascular wilt (NVW) and is currently the major constraint to the production of naranjilla in Ecuador, where losses due to NVW may reach up to 80%.
