Certain crops require a special climate and soil. Plants native to the American tropical rain forest give coca (Erythroxylum cocoa), avocado (Persea americana), the American counterpart of the mango (Spondias mombin), guava (Psidium guqjava), papaya (Carica papaya), the Brazilian nut (Bertholletia excelsa), and chewing-gum (latex om Achras sapota). [Pg.131]

Avocado Persea americana). The avocado grows in tropical and subtropical countries between 40°N and 40°S and is available particularly from California, Florida, Israel, New Zealand, and South Africa. Like the palm and the olive, lipid is concentrated in the fruit pulp (4—25%) from which it can be pressed. There is very little oil in the seed (2%). The oil is used widely in cosmetic products as it is easily absorbed by the skin, and its unsaponifiable material is reported to provide some protection from the sun. It is also available as a high-oleic speciality oil for food use. It is rich in chlorophyll, making it green before processing. It contains 16 0 (10-20%), 18 1 (60-70%), and 18 2 (10-15%) as its major fatty acids. Its unsaponifiable matter, total sterol, and tocopherol levels have been reported (74-78). [Pg.278]

The avocado (Persea americana), also known as the alligator pear, is one of the best known and most economically important species of the laurel family. Avocado is native to tropical regions of the Caribbean, Mexico, and South America. Many different races and varieties are cultivated in southern France, South Africa, Mexico,... [Pg.75]

Phytochemicals, such as the precocenes, isolated from Ageratum houstonianum [126], interfere with JH biosynthesis. In sensitive insect species, application of these dichromenes to larval instars results in precocious metamorphosis to sterile adults or sterility in adult females following treatment. Pesticides based on these compounds would be useful in the control of insects which are primarily destructive in their immature stages. Other phytochemicals which potentially function as "antijuvenile hormones" include dimethyl sciadinonate, isolated from the leaves of avocado, Persea americana Mill [127, 128], Ingestion of this... [Pg.395]

Fig. 5. Eight highly conserved regions of the primary structure of ACC synthase. Identical amino residue relative to the sequence of CM-ACSl (from Cucurbita maxima) is shown by dot. Eleven resuidues shown to be invariant among ACC synthase and aminotransferase are marked with X. The lysine residue (Box 6) which interacts with pyridoxalphosphate and with AdoMet is marked with. However, tyrosine residue in Box 5 are replaced by phenylalanine in AVO-ACSl (from avocado) and DC-ACSl (from carnation). The numbers between the adjacent boxes show number of residues present.
