Pearson correlation of the number of larvae per fruit with the variables related to the changes in the quality of 'Paluma' guava fruits subjected (WiO) or not (WoO) to oviposition by fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata) for 24 hours and subsequently treated (WiC) or not (WoC) with biodegradable film of cassava (Manihot esculenta) starch and oil of sweet fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) (CCFO) or basil (Ocimum basilicum) (CCBO) and stored at 10 °C and 15 °C for 20 days and at 23 °C (room temperature) for 10 days. Control (WoO WoC). AA = ascorbic acid. AP = appearance. pH = hydrogen potential. PP = Mass loss. SS = soluble solids. TA = titratable acidity.

Psidium guajava L. is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. This research aimed to evaluate the effect of the use of biodegradable coating associated with different temperatures on the quality of 'Paluma' guava fruits infested by Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann on its control. The experiment was conducted in a completely...

... attributes of physical, physicochemical, sensory and bioactive qualities were correlated with the number of larvae present in fruits, under different storage conditions/temperatures ( Figure 3A, B, and C). Thus, it is possible to observe how the presence of larvae depreciated the quality in 'Paluma' guava fruits, through the values of negative correlation with one another at both storage temperatures. ...

We recorded for the first time the presence of the two fruit flies pests, Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart) and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) and the parasitoid Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) in the oceanic archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, Pernambuco, Brazil. The specimens were collected in tra...
