Abstract

Jackfruit exhibits a high degree of genetic diversity due to cross-pollination and heterozygosity; nevertheless, little is known about the characterisation of fruit quality in jackfruit genotypes grown in tropical Australia. In this study, patterns of morphological and biochemical variation in the fruit of 12 jackfruit genotypes were investigated. Maximum fruit weight and pulp weight were recorded in ‘Accession 304 (yellow-fleshed)’, which can be more suitable for domestic markets. ‘Accession 348 (orange-fleshed)’ exhibited the highest fruit edible portion, showing its potential for both table and processing purposes. There was evidence of wide variability among jackfruit genotypes in total dry matter content ranging from 20.48% in ‘Seedling 1 (yellow-fleshed)’ to 29.66% in ‘Rajang (orange-fleshed)’. The highest ratio of soluble solids content: titratable acidity was recorded in the fruit of ‘Seedling 2 (orange-fleshed)’ which can be a viable option for processing purposes. Orange-fleshed genotypes having higher a*, ascorbic acid and carotenoid content can be favourable for fresh consumption due to bright-coloured bulbs. ‘Accession 306 (yellow-fleshed)’ exhibited the highest total phenolics content, while ‘Rajang (orange-fleshed)’ showed the highest total flavonoids content. Overall, these findings highlight the unique characteristics of each jackfruit genotype and this information would be useful when selecting the genotypes for marketing and processing purposes.

热带澳大利亚胡柚（Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.）基因型果实品质特征的变异性

由于异花授粉和杂合性，菠萝果具有高度的遗传多样性；然而，人们对生长在澳大利亚热带地区的菠萝果基因型的果实品质特征却知之甚少。本研究调查了 12 个菠萝果基因型果实的形态和生化变异模式。果实重量和果肉重量最大的是 "编号 304（黄瓤）"，它更适合国内市场。品种 348（橙色果肉）"的果实可食用部分最高，显示出其在食用和加工方面的潜力。有证据表明，柚子基因型的总干物质含量差异很大，从 "幼苗 1 号（黄瓤）"的 20.48% 到 "Rajang（橙瓤）"的 29.66%。秧苗 2 号（橙色果肉）"果实的可溶性固形物含量与可滴定酸度之比最高，可用于加工。橙色果肉的基因型具有较高的 a*、抗坏血酸和类胡萝卜素含量，球茎颜色鲜艳，有利于新鲜食用。加入 306（黄瓤）"的总酚含量最高，而 "Rajang（橙瓤）"的总黄酮含量最高。总之，这些研究结果突出了每种菠萝蜜基因型的独特特征，这些信息将有助于为营销和加工目的选择基因型。

期刊介绍： Scientia Horticulturae is an international journal publishing research related to horticultural crops. Articles in the journal deal with open or protected production of vegetables, fruits, edible fungi and ornamentals under temperate, subtropical and tropical conditions. Papers in related areas (biochemistry, micropropagation, soil science, plant breeding, plant physiology, phytopathology, etc.) are considered, if they contain information of direct significance to horticulture. Papers on the technical aspects of horticulture (engineering, crop processing, storage, transport etc.) are accepted for publication only if they relate directly to the living product. In the case of plantation crops, those yielding a product that may be used fresh (e.g. tropical vegetables, citrus, bananas, and other fruits) will be considered, while those papers describing the processing of the product (e.g. rubber, tobacco, and quinine) will not. The scope of the journal includes all horticultural crops but does not include speciality crops such as, medicinal crops or forestry crops, such as bamboo. Basic molecular studies without any direct application in horticulture will not be considered for this journal.
