Phenolic compounds are involved in plant response to environmental conditions and are highly present in leaves of Coffea arabica L., originally an understory shrub. To increase knowledge of C. arabica leaf phenolic compounds and their patterns in adaptation to light intensity, mature leaves of Ethiopian wild accessions, American pure lines and their relative F1 hybrids were sampled in full sun or under 50% shade field plots in Mexico and at two contrasting elevations in Nicaragua and Colombia. Twenty-one phenolic compounds were identified by LC-DAD-MS2 and sixteen were quantified by HPLC-DAD. Four of them appeared to be involved in C. arabica response to light intensity. They were consistently more accumulated in full sun, presenting a stable ratio of leaf content in the sun vs. shade for all the studied genotypes: 1.6 for 5-CQA, F-dihex and mangiferin and 2.8 for rutin. Moreover, 5-CQA and mangiferin contents, in full sun and shade, allowed for differentiating the two genetic groups of Ethiopian wild accessions (higher contents) vs. cultivated American pure lines. They appear, therefore, to be potential biomarkers of adaptation of C. arabica to light intensity for breeding programs. We hypothesize that low 5-CQA and mangiferin leaf contents should be searched for adaptation to full-sun cropping systems and high contents used for agroforestry systems.

Objetivo: Analizar el proceso de producción y comercialización de café en la comunidad del Cerro Cuate, Iliatenco, en la región de la Montaña de Guerrero, México.Diseño/Metodología/aproximación: el trabajo se realizó por; 1) investigación documental), 2) selección del área de estudio, 3) Entrevista estructurada con preguntas abiertas a 22 cafeticultores, soportada con la técnica de encuesta seccional y la herramienta de cédulas de entrevistas, y 4) análisis de la información. El tamaño de muestra se definió por el método de muestreo por conveniencia, y la selección de las unidades de análisis por la técnica bola de nieve. Resultados: El sistema de producción de café que predominó fue el sistema rústico de montaña, intercalado con plátano y frutales. La máxima productividad de las plantaciones se alcanza de 5.5 a 7.5años de edad, la renovación de plantas la hacen a los 12 años. El rendimiento de café fue de 3.7 kg por planta por año. La producción del café la realizan principalmente hombres (77.3%), entre 56 y 70años de edad. La venta se realiza en la presentación de café capulín a granel a intermediarios, a la ARIC, a CAFECO, a la Unión de Ejidos y a la Organización Mixtrui.Limitaciones del estudio/implicaciones: Se da una propuesta de mejora para favorecer el proceso de producción, beneficio y comercialización del café.Hallazgos/conclusiones: Coffea arabica es el principal café que se cultiva, con las variedades Typica, Caturra, Mundo Novo, Garnica y Bourbón. Los factores que limitan su producción y calidad son faltade planeación en manejo del cultivo y no contar con asesoría técnica.

A disposição dos ramos e sobreposição das folhas em plantas de café dificultam a penetração da calda pulverizada. Portanto, para determinar o volume de calda adequado, é importante verificar o estado de enfolhamento da lavoura antes da aplicação. Objetivou-se com este trabalho, avaliar a deposição de caldas de pulverização em lavouras de café aplicadas em diferentes volumes vegetativos. Os tratamentos foram dispostos seguindo esquema de parcelas subdivididas em cada volume vegetativo (5.000; 7.500; 10.000 e 17.500 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>-1</sup>). Sendo as parcelas cinco volumes de calda (150, 300, 450, 600 e 750 L ha<sup>-1</sup>) e as subparcelas três posições no dossel do cafeeiro (terço superior, médio e inferior) com quatro repetições. Nos quatro volumes vegetativos estudados, não ocorreu interação significativa (p&gt;0,05) entre o volume aplicado e os diferentes volumes vegetativos. Porém, os volumes vegetativos de 5.000,0 e 17.500,0 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>-1</sup> a deposição foi crescente com aumento das vazões, o que pode ser atribuído a densidade foliar. Não foi verificada diferença estatística (p&gt; 0,05), entre as médias de deposição nos diferentes terços (alturas) no dossel das plantas de café, nos volumes vegetativos 5.000,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup>, 10.000,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup> e 17.500,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup>. Contudo, no volume de 7.500,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup> houve maior deposição no terço mediano em relação ao terço inferior. A deposição é maior à medida que aumenta o volume de calda aplicado. Em plantas com menor densidade foliar, há incremento na deposição. A deposição é maior no terço mediano em relação ao terço inferior.

Camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia (Kunth) McVaugh) is a fruit economically relevant to the Amazon region, mostly consumed in the form of processed pulp. Our aim was to perform an unprecedented comparative study on the chemical composition and bioactivities of the camu-camu pulp and industrial bio-residues (peel and seed), and then the most promising fruit part was further explored as a functionalized ingredient in yogurt. A total of twenty-three phenolic compounds were identified, with myricetin-O-pentoside and cyanindin-3-O-glucoside being the main compounds in peels, followed by p-coumaroyl hexoside in the pulp, and ellagic acid in the seeds. The peel displayed the richest phenolic profile among samples, as well as the most significant antibacterial (MICs = 0.625–10 mg/mL) and anti-proliferative (GI50 = 180 µg/mL against HeLa cells) activities. For this reason, it was selected to be introduced in a food system (yogurt). Taken together, our results suggest the possibility of using the camu-camu peel as a source of food additives.

Cannabis sativa L. is a controversial crop due to its high tetrahydrocannabinol content varieties; however, the hemp varieties get an increased interest. This paper describes (i) the main categories of phenolic compounds (flavonoids, stilbenoids and lignans) and terpenes (monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes) from C. sativa by-products and their biological activities and (ii) the main extraction techniques for their recovery. It includes not only common techniques such as conventional solvent extraction, and hydrodistillation, but also intensification and emerging techniques such as ultrasound-assisted extraction or supercritical CO2 extraction. The effect of the operating conditions on the yield and composition of these categories of phenolic compounds and terpenes was discussed. A thorough investigation of innovative extraction techniques is indeed crucial for the extraction of phenolic compounds and terpenes from cannabis toward a sustainable industrial valorization of the whole plant.

AbstractWhilst it is established that almost all cultivated coffee (Coffea arabica L.) varieties originated in Yemen after some coffee seeds were introduced into Yemen from neighboring Ethiopia, the actual coffee genetic diversity in Yemen and its significance to the coffee world had never been explored. We observed five genetic clusters. The first cluster, which we named the Ethiopian-Only (EO) cluster, was made up exclusively of the Ethiopian accessions. This cluster was clearly separated from the Yemen and cultivated varieties clusters, hence confirming the genetic distance between wild Ethiopian accessions and coffee cultivated varieties around the world. The second cluster, which we named the SL-17 cluster, was a small cluster of cultivated worldwide varieties and included no Yemen samples. Two other clusters were made up of worldwide varieties and Yemen samples. We named these the Yemen Typica-Bourbon cluster and the Yemen SL-34 cluster. Finally, we observed one cluster that was unique to Yemen and was not related to any known cultivated varieties and not even to any known Ethiopian accession: we name this cluster the New-Yemen cluster. We discuss the consequences of these findings and their potential to pave the way for further comprehensive genetic improvement projects for the identification of major resilience/adaptation and cup quality genes that have been shaped through the domestication process of C. arabica.
