The ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango genome reveals candidate genes for fruit quality [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Mango, Mangifera indica L., an important tropical fruit crop, is grown for its sweet and aromatic fruits. Past improvement of this species has predominantly relied on chance seedlings derived from over 1000 cultivars in the Indian sub ...

Hot Water Treatment for Post-Harvest Disinfestation of Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae) and Its Effect on cv. Tommy Atkins Mango [PDF]

Insects, 2021
Mango production and trade in sub-Saharan Africa is hampered by direct damage and the high quarantine status of B. dorsalis and the paucity of effective post-harvest phytosanitary treatments.

Low cuticle deposition rate in 'Apple' mango increases elastic strain, weakens the cuticle and increases russet. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2021
Russeting compromises appearance and downgrades the market value of many fruitcrops, including of the mango cv. 'Apple'. The objective was to identify the mechanistic basis of 'Apple' mango's high susceptibility to russeting.

Black flesh disorder in mango: a chilling injury symptom increased by early harvest and low storage temperature and reduced by 1-methylcyclopropene. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Black flesh (BF) is an internal disorder in mango, characterized by the development of dark brown to black pigmentation in the inner mesocarp tissue during storage or transport. This study investigated the effects of harvest maturity, low storage or low transport temperatures, and 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) on mango fruit ...

Comparative Valorization of Amazonian Fruit Wastes Reveals Açaí Seeds as a Promising Source of Antibacterial and Antioxidant Compounds. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT Evaluation of the biological activity of food wastes is essential to identify promising bioactive compound sources for food applications. This study comparatively analyzed bioactive compounds and biological activities of Amazonian agro‐industrial fruit wastes: acerola pomace (AP), açaí seed (AS), mango peel (MP), and pupunha peel (PP), aiming ...

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Antioxidant Activity, Phytochemical Characterization, and In Vitro Antitumor Effects of Foam-Mat Dried Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Pulp. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT This study investigated the antioxidant, antiproliferative, and antitumor effects of dried mango pulp (DMP) on human colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco‐2) and human osteosarcoma (MG63) cell lines. The mango pulp was dehydrated using the foam‐mat drying method, and its bioactive compounds were identified by HPLC, UHPLC–MS, and the Folin–Ciocalteu ...

Outcrossing rate between 'Haden' and 'Tommy Atkins' mangoes estimated using microsatellite and AFLP markers

Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira, 2011
The objective of this work was to estimate outcrossing rates between Haden and Tommy Atkins mango cultivars, using AFLP and microsatellite markers. Progenies of an isolated 'Haden' plant, identified in a 'Tommy Atkins' commercial orchard, in Petrolina ...
