Abstract. Thrips is one of the most damaging pests in pepper (Capsicum). Resistance to thrips was identified in  Capsicum annuum. This study was aimed at the elucidation of the genetic background of thrips resistance in Capsicum through QTL mapping. The … Continue reading →

Abstract. Starch and soluble solid content in papaya are an important parameter for measuringthe maturity of fruit after harvesting. In this work, the application of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy in measuring starch and soluble solid content in papaya wereevaluated. Samples … Continue reading →

Abstract. Indonesia is one of the megabiodivesity, which is rich with germplasms including tropical fruit. Snake fruit (Salacca spp.) is a native fruit of Indonesia with a scaly peel and sweet-tart taste. The genetic diversity of 17 accessions of Indonesian … Continue reading →

Abstract. Near infrared spectroscopic (NIRS) techniques have shown promise as rapid and non-destructive tools to evaluate the internal quality attributes of fruits. The objective of this work were to develop a calibration model for prediction soluble solids content (SSC) and … Continue reading →

Abstract. Internal and external qualities of mangoes during storage were evaluated by hyperspectral spectroscopy. Green mature mangoes were harvested in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, and stored for 14 d at 27℃ [relative humidity 90%]. Spectral reflectance (380 _ 1000 nm), anthocyanin … Continue reading →

Abstract. The leaf trichome morphology of 19 Durio kutejensis (lai) landraces was studied. The observation of cross- and paradermal sections of D. kutejensis leaves showed that all landraces have glabrous leaves on the adaxial surface, while their abaxial surfaces are … Continue reading →
