An efficient and cost effective protocol for in vitro propagation of Pineapple (Ananas comosus var. Queen) has been developed. In the proliferation stage, agar based Murashige and Skoog (MS) media was supplemented with 3.0 mg/l benzyleaminopurine (BAP), 0.5 mg/l indole acetic acid (IAA) and 50 mg/l adenine sulphate as RBC design experiment. Two approaches were taken to reduce the chemical cost ...

We developed 18 polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in pineapple (Ananas comosus) by using genomic libraries enriched for GA and CA motifs. The markers were used to genotype 31 pineapple accessions, including seven cultivars and 11 breeding lines from Okinawa Prefecture, 12 foreign accessions and one from a related species. These SSR loci were highly polymorphic: the 31 accessions ...

Abstract Investigation of capability high potential pineapple ( Ananas comosus ) leaves powder (PLP) as reinforcing material on the starch-based foam production has not been reported. This study was aimed to characterize physical and mechanical properties starch formed from mixture cassava PLP. The foams were made using a baking process thermo-pressing machine at temperature 170°C 180°C lower u...

To enhance the tenderness of meat, it can be accomplished physically or chemically. In chemical way, process using protease enzymes that obtained from fruit, higher enzyme activity, softer meat. this experiment, extract and juice melinjo skin (Gnetum gnemon L) was used to examine activity. Papaya (Carica papaya) pineapple (Ananas comosus) were as a comparison. The research conducted understand ...

Eco-enzyme is a fermented product from an organic waste substrate, molasses, and water. can be used as antibacterial because it produces compounds such alcohol acetic acid. Pineapple peel (Ananas comosus L.) eco-enzyme. This study aimed to test the activity of pineapple eco enzyme against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Staphylococcus epidermidis. The method determining Minimum Inhibitory Concentration ...

Pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr) is a plant that can live well on nutrient-poor lands such as peatlands. However, resistance to conditions caused by symbiosis with endophytic bacteria capable of growth-promoting (PGPB) through biostimulant and bioprotective mechanisms. This study aims characterize the potential from pineapple roots peatlands biostimulants agents. Thirteen root were characteri...

A comparative study on diurnal changes in metabolite levels associated with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in the leaves of three CAM species, Ananas comosus (pineapple), a hexose-utilizing species, and Kalanchoë daigremontiana and K. pinnata, two starch-utilizing species, were made. All three CAM species showed a typical feature of CAM with nocturnal malate increase. In the two Kalanchoë s...
