| Abstract Macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) has mainly been evaluated as an oil source focused on biodiesel production. Furthermore, the fruit mesocarp and kernel are edible, and candies, jelly, sweet alcoholic liquor and ice cream are also produced from the mesocarp. Despite its consumption, there is still a lack of information on the nutritional composition of macauba. Selected macauba genotypes producing fruits with a sweet mesocarp were evaluated regarding the fruit characteristics, proximate composition, oil content and fatty acid profile. The mesocarp total sugar (fructose and glucose) content ranged from 4.5 to 9.6 g/100 g, total dietary fiber varied from 6.8 to 9.3 g/100 g, while protein content was up to 2.2 g/100 g (wet basis). There was a significant... |

| ABSTRACT: The objective of this research was to evaluate the nutritional composition and bioactive compounds of whole umbu fruit, including pulp, seed and peel, and also of a commercial umbu pulp. Samples of the fractions and of commercial pulp were analyzed for determination of minerals and proximate composition, total phenolic and antioxidant activity. Pulps and peel were also analyzed for vitamin C and carotenoids contents. Commercial pulp presented better nutritional composition than fresh pulp (P<0.05) and the peel presented higher phenolic content and antioxidant activity than seed. Peel also stood out by its vitamin C (79 mg.100 g-1) and total carotenoids (2,751 µg.100 g-1) contents, showing that, as the main barrier of the fruit for its... |

| A oleaginosa pinhão-manso (Jatropha curcas L.) tem se mostrado uma importante alternativa à produção de biodiesel no Brasil. Objetivando-se conhecer a variabilidade genética existente na Coleção de germoplasma da UFRRJ, e também identificar genótipos de desempenho superior, portadores de atributos importantes ao melhoramento, 60 acessos de J. curcas, aos três anos de idade, foram caracterizados a partir de 12 descritores morfo-agronômicos. A descrição indicou que as características produção de óleo e projeção da copa se mostraram como as de maior variabilidade genética, ao passo que os atributos intrínsecos às sementes apresentaram os menores valores de variação. A decomposição das correlações, via análise de trilha, evidenciou importantes associações... |
