Minor crops such as tropical fruits, vegetables, spices, tea, etc. are traded in substantial amounts in international trade. The total amount traded is usually small in comparison with other major crops. These may however, contribute significantly to the national coffers of small developing countries. As illustrated in Table 1, Codex MRLs for many of these commodities are not available for reference as international food standards. This may be attributed to inadequate baseline data on residue trials and the low priority accorded by Codex to the elaboration of these MRLs. 

An improved method has been developed and validated using fluorescein as the fluorescent probe (Ou and others 2001). This modification provides a direct measure of hydrophilic chain-breaking antioxidant capacity against peroxyl radical. This method has been applied in vegetables of many kinds (Ou and others 2002 Cho and others 2007) and in tropical fruits (Talcott and others 2003 Mahattanatawee and others 2006).

Ethylene dibromide (EDB) is used extensively as a soil and postharvest fumigant for crops and as a quarantine fumigant for citrus, tropical fruits, and vegetables. It also may be used as a gas in termite and Japanese beetle control, beehive and vault fumigation, and spot fumigation of milling machinery. 

Another topic is the protection of perishable fruits, vegetables, potted plants, and cut flowers. Many tropical fruits and vegetables are chill sensitive and cannot be transported or stored under low-temperature conditions. Other means for delaying deterioration are therefore needed. 

Also in Europe freshly squeezed juices are becoming more and more popular. These can be juices from local fruit varieties, but also from vegetables, citrus fruit and other tropical fruit. 

The food scene on the islands reflects its location in the Pacific. Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese and native Hawaiian cuisines are all heavily represented on the islands. Before Europeans discovered Hawaii in the late 1700s, the islanders were primarily vegetarians, living off native fruits, tubers such as the taro root, and edible sea plants. Tropical fruits and vegetables are readily available at all local markets you ll find bananas, avocados, coconuts, breadfruit, mangoes, papaya, passion fruit, guavas, macadamia nuts and litchi (a small fruit with a thin red shell). 

Acidified vegetables means low acid vegetables to which acid(s) or acid food(s) are added these vegetables include, but are not limited to, beans, cucumbers, cabbage, artichokes, cauliflower, peppers and tropical fruits, singly or in any combination. 

Introduction of principles of Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) in growing tropical fruits and vegetables. 

The countries that have benefited from these training programs have since provided and continue to provide data to the JMPR to support the establishment of Godex MRLs in a number of pesticides used in tropical fruits and vegetables. 

Fosetyl-aluminium is mainly used in grapes, vegetables, citrus and tropical fruits such as pineapple. The use of fosetyl-aluminium to control the plant diseases of the highest market significance are listed in Table 21.4 [27]. 

Spondias dulcis (family Anacardiaceae) Commonly known as golden apple and distributed in the wet tropics. Fruits are subacid, they may be processed for drinks, jellies, preserves and marmalades they are also used in syrups and made into pickles. Young shoots and leaves are used as vegetables.

The PTR-MS has been developed and used for a number of different applications. For example, Lindinger, Hansel and Jordan (1998) described the monitoring of metabolic processes in the human body by analyzing breath the monitoring of fruit and meat aging and the decay of vegetation. This monitoring is done by PTR-MS analysis of VOCs emitted, and the analysis of trace components of ambient air. Crutzen et al. (2000), Wameke et al. (2001), Williams et al. (2001), and Poschl et al. (2001) described measurements made by PTR-MS from an aircraft over the tropical rainforests of Surinam. 

Ryania consists of the powdered stem of the tropical shrub, Ryania speciosa. The extract contains ryanodine and related compounds, and has a low toxicity to mammals. The powder is used as a stomach poison on vegetables and fruit. Ryanodine induces paralysis in insects by direct action on the muscles, resulting in sustained contraction and paralysis.
