Characterization of jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora) peel flours and prediction of compounds by FTIR analysis

LWT, 2020
Abstract Jabuticaba peels present high levels of bioactive compounds. The production of flours from these peels can be a strategy for their conservation. Thus, the objectives of this study were to produce flours from jabuticaba peels, to examine the feasibility of employing Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) measurements for their chemical ...

Strong genetic differentiation but limited niche partitioning in a sympatric species pair separated by an allochronic reproductive barrier

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
Sympatric sister species demonstrate substantial geographic and host overlap, with ecological analyses only finding subtle microecological variation in habitat use. Molecular analyses reveal clear genetic differentiation with no evidence of hybridization, suggesting strong reproductive isolation between species. Differences in time‐of‐day mating appear

Antidepressant‐Like and Antioxidant Effects of Plinia trunciflora in Mice

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The jaboticaba tree, Plinia trunciflora (O. Berg) Kausel, is popularly named “jabuticabeira” in Brazil and is used in folk medicine to treat diabetes and chronic inflammation of the tonsils, but studies evaluating the central effects of this species are limited. This study evaluated the antidepressant‐like and antioxidant effects of P. trunciflora (PT)
