Funded Activity Summary

Nutritional properties of mango fruits: linking plant genomics to cellular bioactivities. Mango fruits are prized for their sensorial properties, but little information is available on potential nutritional benefits. By using a broad-based bioactivity screen, followed up with specific bio-activity assays, molecular components within mango fruits that have the potential to deliver nutritional health benefits will be identified. This information will be used both to provide information on the properties of current mango varieties and to develop breeding tools for enhancing nutritional properties in future varieties.
