The experiment was conducted via a completely randomized block design arranged in a drawer with two factors, variety and fertilization.

Nine treatments (including the control) resulting from the use of coffee pulp, poultry manure fertilizers, Bioval biostimulant, or chemical NPK fertilizer alone or in combination were used. The strawberry growth and yield parameters were collected. Fruits were analyzed to determine their protein, P, K, Na, Ca, and Mg contents; pH; and ash concentrations. The results demonstrated that fruit growth, yield, and mineral composition were influenced by fertilizer and variety. No differences in growth parameters were detected among the varieties. However, these factors influence fruit quality. Among the treatments, the combination of coffee pulp, chemical fertilizer, and Bioval (T8) yielded the most favorable results for all growth and yield variables.

Fresh healthy leaves were sampled from two hundred and twenty-seven mango (83), guava (85), and avocado (59) accessions in nine different geographical areas. Methanol extracts of the leaves were prepared and assayed for total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant activity.

Further, correlation analyses showed that specific agro-climatic parameters significantly affected TPC and TFC. Specifically, guava TPC, avocado TPC, and mango TFC had a moderately negative correlation with rainfall and soil moisture. Mango TFC had a moderate correlation with altitude and temperature. However, none of the correlations was high (r ≥ 0.5), suggesting the effect of other confounding factors. No discernible trend was observed with the antioxidant properties. Though some geographical patterns and correlations with agro-climatic parameters were established in the study, TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity and agro-climatic zones may not be conclusively used to characterize these medicinal plants.

The structures of these compounds were elucidated through extensive NMR and HRESIMS analysis. The NMR data of compounds <strong>2</strong> and <strong>8</strong> are reported comprehensively for the first time. The chemotaxonomic significance of the isolated compounds was also examined, highlighting their significance. Notably, compounds <strong>1</strong>–<strong>4</strong>, <strong>8</strong>–<strong>16</strong>, and <strong>18</strong> were being reported from the genus <em>Morinda</em> for the first time. These findings contribute to the growing understanding of the chemical diversity of noni juice.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8799,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Systematics and Ecology","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 104910"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142532621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
