Due to the economic potential of camu-camu, considering its high concentration of vitamin C, the aim of this work was to evaluate the quality and genetic variability seven accessions of camu-camu conserved in genebank (BAG) of Embrapa Amazônia Oriental, in the state of Pará, Amazon region, Brazil. The fruits of camucamuzeiro were analyzed for physicochemical characterization (standard methodologies) and mineral composition. The data were subjected to multivariate statistical analysis, using the techniques of cluster analysis and principal component analysis. The formation of different groups for each genotype, which shows the genetic variability and the dissimilarity of the genotypes in the species data, may be used to guide the selection of promising genotypes to enrich the programs of genetic improvement of the camucamuzeiro. Ascorbic acid showed levels above 1000 mg 100 g-1, however, genotypes 4, 1 and 2 show the highest potential and the most promising nutritional capacity, but genotype 4 showed good characteristics for the moisture, acidity, carbohydrates, Cu and Zn and differs totally from others about the total soluble solids (TSS) and flavon-3-ol, features that make it the most promising genotype. It was possible to separate the seven different genotypes using multivariate analysis (hierarchical cluster analysis-HCA and principal component analysis-PCA).

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-06-25) OLIVEIRA, Thaise Cristine de Souza; MATTIETTO, Rafaella de Andrade; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7832266671782588; LOPES, Alessandra Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8156697119235191
This study aimed to determine physical and physico-chemical characteristics, bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity from camu-camu pulp of three different progenies, came from Active Germplasm Bank of camucamuzeiro, at Embrapa Amazônia Oriental, in three ripening stages. Over the ripening, the mass and the diameters varied (p ≤ 0.05) just for progeny 44 and the pulp yield increased for all the progenies, with results over 50% in the ripe stage. The ripening stage didn’t show effects in the moisture and ashes content and also pH for progeny 38; ashes for progeny 44 and fat and insoluble fibers for progeny 17. The others results varied with the ripening, but, with different behaviors to each progeny, except for the total sugar, soluble solids contents and the SS/TTA ratio, which showed a tendency to increase, and the total titratable acidity decreased in all the progenies. Overall, a higher level of vitamins C were obtained in the green stage, with a first step of degradation, as it reached the semi-ripe stage, followed by a synthesis step until the end of the ripening stage, except for the progeny 38, which showed a reduction. As for the phenolic compounds, during the ripening stage, the three progenies were characterized for synthesis and degradation processes of the total phenolic compounds; the total flavanols decreased; the flavonols content had a distinct behavior in each progeny, with an increasing in the progenies 17 and 38, and a decreasing in the progeny 44; due to a limitation of the method used to determine small quantities, It was possible to quantify anthocyanins only for progenies 17 and 44 in the ripening stage. The antioxidant capacity, determinated through the methods TEAC and DPPH, decreased in all the progenies. Besides the significant effects of the ripening stage, the results showed that the genetic variability of camu-camu influenced significantly the physical characteristics of the fruits and the continents of all compounds studied, and still the antioxidant capacity obtained through the methods mentioned.

Principais compostos bioativos e capacidade antioxidante no epicarpo do camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia) em função da maturação

The presence of bioactive compounds suffers greatly influenced by environmental and genetic factors, and behave differently in each part of the plant. However, there are few studies which deal these aspects of camu-camu. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the physical, physico-chemical composition, the main bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity of camu-camu bark, depending on the stage of ripeness in fruits of different genotypes from plant matrices Bank Active Germplasm Camucamuzeiro of Embrapa Eastern Amazon. Fruits of three genotypes, selected at random in three maturity stages were collected. Results were expressed on a dry basis and analyzed by Analysis of Variance, Comparison Test Tukey's and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, with a confidence interval of 95%. For physico-chemical analysis, there was a different one for each progeny, depending on maturity, except that the carbohydrate content increased in all progenies behavior. For vitamin C, the progenies 38 and 44 showed a high content of ascorbic acid, comparing the green and ripe stages, and 17 progeny showed a decrease during maturation; the highest content of vitamin C has been found in 44 progeny, ripe stage (24,02 g/100g). All progenies showed an increase in the content of total phenolics and anthocyanins throughout maturation, with the highest values were demonstrated by progeny 17 (3298,98 AGE/100g mg) and 44 (165,91 mg/100g) respectively. Flavonols and carotenoids showed a distinct and statistically different behavior in each progeny, with the highest content of flavonols was found in 17 progeny in the green stage (343,63 mg QE/100g) and carotenoids in 44 progeny, ripe stage (105,88 mg/100g). Regarding the antioxidant activity based on the DPPH method, the progenies 38 and 44 showed the same behavior throughout maturation, with higher antioxidant activity half ripe and smallest stage in green, with the highest antioxidant activity was found in 17 progeny in the ripe stage (38,95 g fruit/g). Already by ABTS method, the antioxidant activity was statistically different for all progenies and in all stages of maturation, higher value submitted by 44 progeny at maturity (170,63 μM trolox/g). Evaluating the relationship between bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity, the 17 progeny won more statistically significant correlations. It can be concluded that various factors cause differences in the synthesis of various compounds during fruit ripening of camucamuzeiro.
