Ultrastructural Changes in Cotyledons of Pineapple Guava (Myrtaceae) During Somatic Embryogenesis [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 1996 Abstract Ultrastructural studies (SEM and TEM) were performed on cotyledons of pineapple guava (Feijoa sellowianaBerg, Myrtaceae) induced to form embryos on medium containing 1.0 mg l−1(4.5μ M 2,4-D) and 0.3 M sucrose. At the time of culture, the cells were filled with protein and lipid bodies.

Development and quality of pineapple guava fruit in two locations with different altitudes in Cundinamarca, Colombia [PDF]
Bragantia, 2015 Fruit growth is stimulated by different weather conditions. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of weather conditions on the physicochemical properties of pineapple guava fruit growth. Twenty trees were marked in two production areas located at different altitudes (1,800 and 2,580 m.a.s.l.), and measurements were performed every 7 days

Phenolic content, antioxidant activity and antiamylolytic activity of extracts obtained from bioprocessed pineapple and guava wastes [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2012 The relationship between phenolic content, antioxidant and antiamylolytic activities was investigated in Rhizopus oligosporus-mediated solid-state bioprocessing of pineapple and guava residues. Two different treatments of fruit residues mixed with soy flour (5g of soy flour and 5g of fruit residue; 1g of soy flour and 9g of fruit residue) were ...

Phenol-Rich Feijoa sellowiana (Pineapple Guava) Extracts Protect Human Red Blood Cells from Mercury-Induced Cellular Toxicity [PDF]
Antioxidants, 2019 Plant polyphenols, with broadly known antioxidant properties, represent very effective agents against environmental oxidative stressors, including mercury. This heavy metal irreversibly binds thiol groups, sequestering endogenous antioxidants, such as glutathione.

Model of pre-harvest quality of pineapple guava fruits (Acca sellowiana (O. berg) burret) as a function of weather conditions of the crops [PDF]
Bragantia, 2017 Weather conditions influence the quality parameters of pineapple guava fruit during growth and development. The aim of this study was to propose a model of pre-harvest fruit quality as a function of weather conditions in the cultivation area. Twenty trees were flagged per farm in 2 localities of the Department of Cundinamarca, Colombia: Tenjo (2,580 m ...
